The Rafter 3 Ranch was started by Mattie Morris (1874-1969) after she acquired her share of the larger Morris Ranch from her father. J. P. Morris, [Mattie's father] began his ranching career at a young age trailing cattle herds to northern markets. By 1884, he purchased land in the Jim Ned Valley of Coleman County and moved his family there in 1888. He added to his holdings so that he eventually built a ranching empire of 100,000 acres. Morris later became involved in banking, and real estate. His daughter, Mattie B. Miller, along with her children established the Rafter 3 Ranch from their share of the Morris Ranch holdings. They used the original Morris brand. One of her sons, Morris Miller, ran the Shackelford County operations. Doris Miller, the daughter of Morris Miller, was running the Bluff Creek Ranch of Shackelford County (https://legacy.lib.utexas.edu/taro/ttusw/00097/tsw-00097.html, accessed July 27, 2018).
