The area where McKinney is, beginning with what we now call Collin County was originally settled by pioneers offered free land by colonizers. These colonizers were hired by the state of Texas to introduce settlers into this area. The offer usually included up to 640 acres of land, a gun, and help building a cabin. Settlers arrived in wagons braving the threats of weather, wild animals, and native Indians for the promise of free land and a better life. They found that life here in the fertile land was rich but hard. Some left, abandoning their claims, but many stayed on and still more came, establishing farms, communities, and commerce. McKinney derived its name from Collin McKinney who was a pioneer and land surveyor who helped draft and signed the Texas Declaration of Independence from Mexico in 1836.
