My grandfather ran a gas station there, I have a old letter he wrote from Red Barn, with headliner with the name of Red Barn, TX. In 1936 when oil was found around there people had no place to live so the rancher build rooms in his red barn which later burned the place down and from there the moved about. My grandfather's name was C.D. Henderson buried in Brownfeild, TX. Submitted by: Paul ( bo ) Bagley
