town
East Texas, Carthage.
County of Panola, which was a native Indian word for cotton. At one point in history Panola county was the natural gas king of the country. I think we are still in the top 5. An interesting side note, there is very little crude oil produced in Panola county, just natural gas. There is also an abundance of bituminous lignite coal here. Panola county is the hometown of Gentleman Jim Reeves, Linda Davis, Tex Ritter and a young fellow becoming popular is Brandon Ryder(Brandon Riddlehoover). Tanya Tucker maintained a place on Lake Murvaul for many years but I am unsure if she still has it. Panola county is also home to the Texas Country Music Hall of Fame and Tex Ritter Museum. We have a nice little town once voted the Best Small Town in Texas.
Unfortunately we have no offroad parks lol.
