Biographical History

Ellwood Farms was formed in 1924 after the death of Isaac L. Ellwood (1833-1910), co-inventor and manufacturer of barbed wire, who had purchased the Spade Ranch in 1891 and the Renderbrook Ranch in 1889. In 1924, the Ellwood Farm Company began selling farm-size plots of Spade Ranch land. The business, based in Lubbock, Texas, for over forty years, was administered by William L. and Erwin P. Ellwood, sons of Isaac L. Ellwood, and by R. C. Hopping and T. B. Zellner. In 1946, the Spade Land Company purchased a portion of the Ellwood Farms land and operated it as the Ellwood Farm Company.
