Ratcliff is an unincorporated community in Houston County in east Texas, United States. Founded in the early 1900s, Ratcliff initially had a population of more than five thousand, with most working at a sawmill operated by the Louisiana and Texas Lumber Company. This Four C Mill used the lake that is the heart of Ratcliff Lake Recreation Area as its millpond. The recreation area is located within the Davy Crockett National Forest. Ratcliff is named for an early settler, J.H. Ratcliff, who operated a smaller sawmill, which cut the timber to build the larger Four C Mill. == Gallery == File:Ratcliff Lake sign IMG_0982.JPG|Entrance sign to Ratcliff Lake Recreation Area at Ratcliff, Texas File:Ratcliff Lake, Ratcliff, TX IMG_0985.JPG|Ratcliff Lake in the Davy Crockett National Forest File:Ratcliff, TX, Baptist Church IMG_7528.JPG|Ratcliff Baptist Church on Texas State Highway 7 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ratcliff, Texas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
