Historical Marker

In 1581, Capitán Francisco Sánchez Chamuscado took possession of this region for the King of Spain, naming it the Province of San Felipe. Significant European settlement of the area did not occur until the mid-1800s. "T or C" in 1950 took its present name from Ralph Edwards' radio program.
