Summary
Constructed in about 1876 in rural Chase County, the Texas Trail Stone Corral is significant for its association with the cattle trade of the late nineteenth century. The corral gains importance from its location along the Texas Trail where it served in the development of the cattle industry through trade and transportation. The cattle trade that developed in the late 1800s had an immense commercial impact on the geographic areas it traversed, especially Nebraska, which served as the terminus of several cattle driving routes during the late nineteenth century.
