Picture
     Randall County is named for Horace Randal who was a Confederate brigadier general (when the county was formed his name got misspelled thus Randall County has two ll's). The county seat is Canyon. 
       Canyon is  a neat little, not so little town. It's hard to know where Amarillo stops and Canyon starts, but I think Canyon is a way prettier town. This is where most of the markers in Randall County reside and we were largely successful in capturing them . There are also some confirmed missing markers Francisco Vasques De Coronado on the Texas Plains and Los Ciboleros (New Mexico Buffalo Hunters). These marker were stolen and have been missing for some time. The application criteria at the time these markers were erected was not as strict as it is now and included lots of anecdotal information, so sometimes, as is the case with these two markers, a county will elect not to replace the markers even if they can afford to do so. The Panhandle-Plains Museum is listed everywhere that list markers as having a medallion & plate but the application process was never completed, for a reason no one can pinpoint. There was also an Amarillo marker on 7000 South Washington Street I think this is one of the many missing Amarillo markers, there should be about six  in Amarillo and we only located one. Randall County had three marker names with that title, the one that was on SH 217 is also stolen with the two above that were also on east SH 217. Randall County is an active county as far as adding new markers goes and there are always new one to capture. We have saved the Palo Duro Canyon markers because we really hope to spend a few nights in canyon, we both think it will be really special.
