Blue Mound

Texas · USA · Road

The hill was a lookout for the people who lived here. Settlers wanted the land for cattle and houses.

Blue Mound Hill near Haslet, Texas was used as a lookout by the people who lived in this country before it was settled.

In the 1800s white settlers came into north Texas wanting the land for cattle and homes, and the tribe here was killed.

What is reported is seen every full moon, around midnight, on the hill.

The specific incident is not documented, and this entry does not assert it as history. What surrounds it is documented and is not in dispute. North Texas was cleared of its Native population through a sustained campaign over several decades in the middle of the nineteenth century, carried out by settlers, the Texas Rangers and the state, and the Wichita, Caddo and Comanche peoples of this region were driven out, confined, or killed.

A hill used as a lookout was used that way for a reason.

The area is now developed and largely residential.
