Under William McFaddin, the McFaddin Ranches of Beaumont reached their greatest extent.[1] The Spindletop oil gusher was located on land leased from McFaddin. The site of Port Arthur, Texas, was purchased from McFaddin by Arthur Edward Stilwell.[2][3] Former pieces of the McFaddin Ranches now make up Sea Rim State Park, the McFaddin National Wildlife Refuge, and the J.D. Murphree Wildlife Management Area. The McFaddin-Ward House was erected on his homestead and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.[4][5] Quotes"Sister, don't give up the land. They are not making land anymore." W.P.H.
