The
History of Lubbock Power & Light
by Don Cullon
Lubbock was a
relatively new town at the time having been created in 1891 when two
smaller settlements both
moved their towns from several miles away to our
present location. The first
county court house was built at this time with the county
itself having been created in 1876 by the Texas State Legislature.
Construction of the Panhandle & Santa Fe Railroad was completed in 1909
which led the
citizens to incorporate their town and thus Lubbock was officially born.
The population of Lubbock the following year had grown to 1,938.
