Description: Natural spring, with a stone and concrete structure built around and over it. A half-dome stone-trimmed 'grotto' covers the spring. A man-made canal channels the visible water. A plaque is set into a stone/cement low monument inside the canal. It reads: "The Yoiuane tribe of the Caddo group of Indians lived here as early as 1690 to 1840. They hunted buffalo and deer on the prairie. They used McKamy Spring as a watering place. It was from these friendly Tejas Indians that Texas got her name." The spring is located off Tejas Trail, just north of Spring Valley Road in south-east Richardson. It is located on the property of Green Valley Apartments, near two older homes, in a little valley area. Native people last known to have camped at the spring were of a Caddoan-speaking tribe. The Bowser family once owned the property, and then T. F. McKamy (1925-1927). Part of the old stagecoach route extending from Breckenridge ran near this site as well.

Description: Found on page 66 of A. F. Weaver's book, "TIME WAS In Mineral Wells, Second Edition", the caption for this photo: "First known as the Vichy Well and Natatorium, later the Beach, and then The Standard Well. It was torn down and the USO was built during World War II (now the North Oak Community Center)." For a time the building held the Mineral Wells Senior Center. Still known as the Community Center, the building has recently been leased to the Crazy Water Festival Association, and is slated for renovation in the near future.

Description: Found on page 158 of "TIME WAS In Mineral Wells" by A. F. Weaver, the caption says, "Entrance to the original Camp Wolters around the 1930's. This entrance was located near and behind the present National Guard Armory." Originally a State Guard Cavalry base on West Mountain, Camp Wolters was built in the eastern part of Mineral Wells in the 1930s. As the nation began mobilization for World WarII, an expanded Camp Wolters was constructed east of this location and became the largest Infantry Replacement Training Center in the country. The entrance to the original Camp Wolters was constructed of native sandstone with red clay tile roofs. During WWII, the original Camp Wolters was used as a German Prisoner of War camp. After Fort Wolters was decommissioned following the Vietnam War, part of the property was distributed to Mineral Wells and Weatherford. The original camp is now part of the campus of Mineral Wells High School, and a couple of the buildings remain there along with a remnant of the parade ground; its historical significance recognized by a Texas Historical Commission Marker.
