Biographical Sketch

The U Ranch, comprised of 18 sections, is located 10 miles northwest of Sterling City in Sterling County, Texas. The ranch was founded by Col. W. R. McEntire, a Civil War Confederate Veteran, when he acquired the land from M. B. Stephenson in 1880. Over the years the ranch grew from 15 sections to 150 sections. Some of the land was passed down to the children of W. R. McEntire. George received title to 23,000 acres in 1906. Each of his children, George H., Jr. and Virginia, inherited 16,233 acres in 1962. Virginia ran the ranch under the name VJ Ranch while George H. McEntire, Jr. called his the U Ranch. In 1999, the ranch was owned by Ruth Caldwell, the daughter of George H. McEntire, Jr. Her son Chris manages the sheep and cattle ranch for the family.
