Chillicothe, Texas was named by A. E. Jones for his previous home in Missouri. The town is located in eastern Hardeman County. Founded in the early 1880s, the town is filled with a sense of Old West style with a modern twist. In 1887, the railroad was built through the county. Originally on the north side of the railroad tracks, the town was rebuilt on the south side after a devastating fire. Depicting the history of Chillicothe is the Chillicothe Mural that was completed in July 2006. Chillicothe was also called the Iris Village due to the numerous iris growing in the town.
