TIOGA, TX. TIOGA, TEXAS. Tioga, twenty miles southwest of Sherman on U.S. Highway 377 in the southwest corner of Grayson County, was founded in 1881 when the Texas and Pacific Railway reached the site. The crew used water from the local well and named the site Tioga, a New York Indian word said to mean swift current or fair and beautiful.
In 1797 Tioga township was divided, the north township receiving the name of Athens, and the south, the name of Ulster, thus the name Tioga, which for centuries had been given to the confluence of the two rivers, was lost to our county.
