FRONTIER VILLAGE
 

Frontier Village of Grayson County is a non-profit organization founded in 1966 to establish a frontier village at Loy Lake Park. In this replica of an early village, structures and artifacts historically significant to Grayson County preserve the rich background of the pioneers who settled here in the nineteenth century.

The Commissioners Court of Grayson County deeded 17 acres at Loy Lake Part to Frontier Village. Later the court fenced 14 of those acres as a site for the village. The Nettie Bass House, one of the oldest houses in the county, was moved into this area. In 1974, the Holder log cabin, dating from the 1840s and which housed on the county's earliest schools, was dismantled and reconstructed to become the village school. In 1975 the two-story Davis-Ansley log cabin was moved to the village site. More recently, several other structures have been moved to the village site and have been reconstructed to reflect the early history of the county.
