Swenson Land and Cattle Company
The Swenson Land and Cattle Company (originally Swenson Brothers), which controls the SMS Ranches of Texas, was founded by Svante Magnus Swenson (1816-1896), a Swedish immigrant. The Swenson ranches are located in northwest Texas. He and his sons formed the S. M. Swenson & Sons banking corporation in New York. The company's headquarters, which are based in New York, and the various ranches, are run by Swenson family members. Swenson also founded the town of Stamford, Texas in Jones County through the Stamford and Northwestern Townsite Company.
