PROSPER

BRIEF HISTORY

Between 1850 and 1902, only two settlements existed in the area that is now Prosper. Their development was increased in 1876 when County Courts ordered to establish small tracts of land for sale. Dr. A. T. Bryant of McKinney purchased the land that would later become the current town of Prosper. Named after their prosperous crops, Prosper became incorporated in 1914.
