Where did Gulledge Elementary get its name?
Gulledge Elementary, an exemplary school, got its name from an early Plano pioneer, Joe H. Gulledge. Joe H. Gulledge was born in Chesterfield County, South Carolina, on November 25, 1857. Having lost everything in the Civil War, his family moved to Texas and settled in Lewisville.
Where is Graham and Gulledge located?
By 1884 -1885, the store became known as Graham and Gulledge and was located one door west of the southwest corner of Main (currently Avenue K) and Mechanic Street (currently 15th Street). There the store remained, though the fire of 1895 burned much of the business district.
What happened to JH Gulledge after the fire?
After the fire, Graham and Gulledge dissolved their partnership, and Gulledge went into business for himself , establishing the J.H. Gulledge store downtown. In the rebuilt store, the business flourished and became one of the biggest dry goods establishments in Collin County.
