First priority when in Lubbock
I found it highly interesting to learn more about the early settlers and the way they lived. Do not miss the building with the branding irons. Advice: Take the suggested route to see the buildings and equipment in their chronolohical order.
This exhibit features items given by Comanche Chief Quanah Parker to Samuel Burk Burnett and his descendants as tokens of friendship. Quanah was a ranching partner and friend to three Burnett generations, owners of the Four Sixes Ranch and some of the most well-known ranchers in Texas. The premier collection includes rarely seen personal items of Quanah as well as clothing and artifacts from five plains tribes.
Jim Rymer has been a volunteer Ranch Host for 25 years. He especially likes to volunteer at the Matador Half Dugout and explain to visitors how early settlers on the southern Great Plains once called the dugout "home.”
