Wardville was the first county seat in Johnson County. This 16' x 16' log
cabin was built in 1854 and served as the first Johnson County
Courthouse for two years before the county seat was moved to Bucannan and
later to Cleaburne. The 1854 Courthouse was moved to it's present
location when Lake Pat Cleburne was built in 1961 and flooded the
townsite. It is now located at the Chisholm Trail Outdoor Museum
west of Lake Pat Cleburne. |
