Marker Text: ​ Young's Coleman and his son Thomas established a south Texas ranching empire in the 1850s. The headquarters of their operation was here at Rincon where there was afresh water depression. In 1871 the Colemans joined with George W. Fulton and T.H. and J.M. Mathis to form what became the Coleman- Fulton Pasture Company. The headquarters remained at Rincon and the ranch included a main house, worker housing, a school, commissary, and numerous other outbuildings. President William Howard Taft visited Rincon in 1909. The company was dissolved in the 1920s. (1994)
