Miss Jessie Williams (Chicken Ranch (Texas)) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Chicken Ranch (Texas)
The Chicken Ranch was an illegal but tolerated brothel in the U.S. state of Texas that operated from 1905 until 1973. It was located in Fayette County about east of downtown La Grange. The business was established by Miss Jessie Williams, and was the basis for the 1978 Broadway musical ''The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas'', the 1982 film adaptation, and the famed ZZ Top song, "La Grange". ==Early history== The brothel that became the Chicken Ranch opened in La Grange in 1844. Run by a widow known as "Mrs. Swine," the brothel operated out of a hotel near the saloon and featured three young women from New Orleans, Louisiana. The ladies used the hotel lobby for entertaining and rented a room upstairs for conducting their business. The brothel was successful for over a decade, but was forced to close during the Civil War, when Swine and one of her prostitutes were forced to leave town as Yankees and American loyalists approached. After the war, prostitution was endemic in the local saloons, but no official records were kept.
