"Milligan Family; William and Liza Milligan,pioneer settlers of Collin County,came to Texas in 1856 from Missouri and settled east of McKinney in what has since been known as the Milligan Community. William was crippled,but during the Civil War,he hauled supplies for the Confederacy to a Prisoner of War camp close to where Bonham is now located. As Quantrell's Raider's had swept through the community,taking away all good horses,William had to use a mule to carry his supplies."
