I’m content that there is no town name here. Just my ranch name and the County.

Yep, but that's where the town got it's name. Not the Mexican general.

Pulltight in Coryell County. In the late 1800's and early 1900's they had a fertilizer factory there. The wagons hauling the fertilizer had to go down a really steep hill and when they did they had to pull tight on the rains to prevent a runaway. Nothing left there today except a cemetery and a couple of houses.
