TEXAS RANGER RESEARCH CENTER
State Designated Official Library
and Archives
of the Texas Rangers
Welcome
to the
State Designated Official Library and Archives
of the Texas Rangers!
About
the Research Center:
In 1975 the Moody Foundation of Galveston, Texas provided a grant to
establish a small library of basic reference books on the Texas Rangers.
The late Mrs. Mary Moody Northen was instrumental in securing support
for the library.This was the beginning of what is now the State-designated
library and archives for the Texas Rangers.
Mission:
The mission of the Research Center is to serve the public and
advance knowledge of the Texas Rangers by acquiring, preserving, interpreting
and exhibiting materials relating to Texas and the American West, law
enforcement, Southern Plains Indian history and ethnography, and firearms
history and technology.
Funding:
The Center receives no State funding; all operating
monies for the Center are raised from donations, fees and general museum
revenues, which are kept as reasonable as possible. If the Center has
been useful to your research or project please consider financial support.
