Granbury is a city and county seat of Hood County, Texas, United States. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 7,978 and is the principal city of the Granbury Micropolitan Statistical Area. Granbury is located 35 miles southwest of Fort Worth, Texas.
Founded in 1887, Granbury started as a square and log cabin court house. Many of the buildings on the square are now registered historic landmarks, including the Granbury Opera House, which still hosts Broadway productions. The city name originated from the Confederate General Hiram B. Granberry. Some scholars, to explain why the city name is spelled differently, believe the name Granberry was misread on a document, but recent findings have concluded that Granberry chose to spell his name Granbury. Recent expansion of the city was made possible by the damming of the Brazos River in 1969, which formed Lake Granbury, a long, narrow lake which flows through the city.
Granbury and Hood County are rich in Texas history. David (Davy) Crockett's wife, Elizabeth, settled in Hood County in 1853 following the Texas Revolution against Mexico. Crockett, as well as other Alamo participants, received 640 acres in land grants. The Crockett family received land in what is now Hood County. Elizabeth Crockett is buried in Acton State Historic Site, the smallest state park in Texas. A large statue of Elizabeth Crockett marks her grave site. Several of Crockett's descendants still reside in Hood County.

Dash camera video captured the moment Granbury police officer Chase Miller saved a toddler’s life last weekend.
This video won't go viral. Why? Well, because it involves footage of a Police Officer saving the life of a 3-year old. You see, the 'media' are only really interested in negative stories involving the Police, as such stories get more interest, meaning media companies can charge more for advertising space. And some sections of the public get brainwashed into believing that the Police are, well, bad. To those who have been brainwashed we say this: If this was your child, would you tell the Police Officer to turn around and leave? If you answer yes to this question, then you are perhaps more brainwashed that you think, and your child needs to be taken into care as you clearly are not fit to be a parent. If you answered no, then perhaps change your opinion of the Police, and the work which the...
