Gray County, formed in 1876 out of the Bexar District, was named for Peter W. Gray,qv a lawyer and politician of the Republic of Texas and Civil War eras. In 1902 the county was organized with Lefors as the county seat. Lefors, a tiny ranching town, remained the county seat until 1928, when Pampa's oil-induced growth led to its becoming the county seat. -Handbook of Texas Online: Gray County. |
