- CAMERON TEXAS
- The town of Cameron was small village before Sam Houston liberated Texas in the Battle of San Jacinto. In April 1846 the Texas Legislature authorized a seven-member commission to find a permanent site for the county seat of Milam. The commission purchased a sixty-acre tract of Daniel Monroe’s headright on the Little River in 1846. The new town was named Cameron, in honor of Ewen Cameron. He was a Scot highlander prominent in the Texas Revolution and a member of the Mier Expedition during the war with Mexico.
