During this time, the area around Waxahachie became one of the largest producers of cotton in the country and also became known as the “Cotton Queen”.

Waxahachie is now a suburb in the Dallas, Fort Worth Metroplex with a little over 30,000 residents and is now known as the “movie capital of Texas”.
