Region: Gulf Coast
Established in the early 1900s on the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railroad
in east central San Patricio County, the town was named for Charles Taft of the
Coleman-Fulton Pasture Co. for which it was a shipping point. Other partners in
the enterprise were named Mathis, Fulton and Sinton—who also have towns named
for them. Today's economy is based on agriculture and diversified
industries.
