HISTORY 6BT

1835

1926

1932

When citizens of Texas took up arms to win their freedom in 1836, the budding Republic called on William

Nash to recruit volunteers from among the settlers in East Texas. For his valor, leadership and service

fighting among those volunteers, Nash was awarded the land that today forms the heart of Wynne Ranch.

For four more generations of the Nash family, the Ranch played a major role in the economy an social life of

Kaufman County, providing the foundation for the city’s First National Bank and its oil mill. During the

ensuing years the Ranch would come to play an even larger role across the state and the nation.

The Ranch's gently rolling terrain, multiple stocked fishing ponds and majestic oak trees was the perfect

setting for family gatherings through the generations. The Wynnes welcomed many guests. At least one

guest would change the flavor of American cuisine and yet another would become one of the most

notorious figures of the history of crime. In 1926, Mama Adelaida Cuellar began making her soon-to-be

famous tamales on the Ranch and selling them at the Kaufman County Fair along with enchiladas and chili

made from products grown on the ranch. Using her profit, Cuellar opened a café in Kaufman where her

sons learned the recipes that would be the foundation of their own restaurant in Dallas called El Chico. By

the 1950s, “Mama’s Boys,” as they were known in Dallas, were operating five restaurants. The Cuellar

brothers later established El Chico restaurants throughout Texas and the Southwest.

A few years after the Cuellar story began, Bonnie and Clyde made a fateful stop in Kaufman. In 1932 the

two outlaws and their gang had a few safe houses close to the Wynne Ranch. They robbed a hardware

store in Kaufman where they hoped to steal guns but the robbery went awry and Bonnie was captured.

While the Kaufman grand jury eventually declined to indict, it was during the intervening months stuck in

the Kaufman County jail that Bonnie penned her infamous poem “The Story of Suicide Sal”.

HISTORY 7BT

1957

1970’s

1980’s –

PRESENT

Toddie Lee Wynne, Sr. was himself a member of a large East Texas family and had built a successful career as an

oilman and attorney in Dallas. Together with his friend Clint Murchison, Sr., Toddie Lee owned and operated

American Liberty Oil Company (AMLICO) and served as an investor or developer in a network of businesses that

included Six Flags Over Texas, the Daytona International Speedway and the planned community of Wynnewood.

Toddie Lee Wynne Jr. was an original owner and founder of the Dallas Cowboys Football Club in 1960. Alongside all

these ventures the Wynnes continued to run cattle on the Ranch which would quickly become synonymous with

the Wynne family name. It was at the Ranch where Toddie Lee and Imogen (Imogen Young Wynne's Mother was a

Nash) were affectionately known as “Fat Dad” and “Big Mimi” by their children and grandchildren.

Since those times of the oil boom and outlaws, new generations of Wynnes have worked to build on the long legacy

of their family. Toddie Lee Wynne, Jr. co-founded the real estate company of Wynne/Jackson and developed the

Plaza of the Americas. The first Cattle Baron’s Ball was held on a part of the Ranch in 1974 with the proceeds

benefitting the American Cancer Society. That year Charlie Pride headlined the main show for a crowd with Tom

Landry in attendance. Cattle Baron’s Ball has since gone on to become the American Cancer Society’s largest

fundraiser raising over $40 million dollars for cancer research.

The Wynne family also established and continues to support the Yellow Rose Gala Foundation. The

Foundation was first established by founders Dee and Jimmy Wynne in April 1986 shortly after Dee’s

diagnosis with multiple sclerosis. From 1986-2001 the gala became one of the most successful social events

in Dallas, netting over $5 million for MS research. Wynne’s disease eventually prevented her from continuing

with the gala but it didn’t impede the imprint she made. The final fundraiser, in 2001, was one for the record

books. It netted over $2 million with performances by The Eagles, Stevie Nicks and Trisha Yearwood.

Following Dee Wynne’s passing in 2014 and in honor of her memory, the Gala has since been reestablished

by her children, Todd Wynne and Fallon Wynne Way, with the help of young active community leaders and

past Yellow Rose supporters. The Yellow Rose Gala Foundation is an active 501 (c)(3) that has the drive and

vision to forever rid the world of MS. Through this initiative the Yellow Rose Gala Foundation is partnering

with the National MS Society where 100% of the net proceeds raised go directly to Progressive MS research.

• Coyote

Wynne Ranch is home to a large population of coyotes providing year-round predator calling in many rolling openparts of the ranch.

• Dove

• Duck

The abundance of water on the property offers a mix of: Canvas Backs, Mallard, Pintail, Red Head, Teal, Wood Duckand more with excellent pond hopping hunting. Larger tanks also offer great opportunities to hunt from numerousduck blind locations. The property is located in the flyway route where ducks nest and roost at the John Bunker SandsWetland Center, located 5 miles northwest in Seagoville.

• Geese

Seasonal Canadian and Snow Geese migrate through the property providing a short but effective 1-2 week huntingseason during the November and December months where hundreds of geese flock to all of the ponds across theranch.

• Hogs

A healthy population of feral hogs can be found along Kings Creek which is the southern border of Parcel B. Thisbottomland provides dense cover and excellent hunting.

• Whitetail Deer

Whitetail are not plentiful but can be found in the lower areas of the property in the dense oaks along the western sideof the property. Deer have not been hunted on the property giving buyers a fresh start to management and hunting.

• Historical Hunting at Wynne Ranch

Wynne Ranch has been hunted by family and friends during seasonal hunting months, mainly for coyote, dove, duckand occasional geese. There are currently no hunting blinds or deer feeders on the property which provides anexcellent opportunity for new wildlife management and hunting practices. There is an abundance of wildlife and eachportion of the ranch offers different styles of hunting from the moderate mesquite laden pastures which areexceptional for hunting migratory birds and waterfowl to the dense oak and cedar elm groves with open areas that areideal for hunting whitetail.

The 2015-2016 hunting seasons were very strong where limits were quickly collected on dove and ducks. Kaufmanaverages 41.01 inches of rainfall per year, which is 5.36 inches more than the State of Texas average.
