You may be wondering how Round Rock got its name. In a local creek, there was this famous, large, round rock. Back in the early 1800s when European settlers first arrived to this area on wagon trains and horseback, they searched for a safe place to cross this river. When they saw this large, round rock, they knew that the river wasn’t too deep at this point, and it signified a safe crossing. As a result, this round rock became quite famous in the area, and the town was named after it.
