Conner, who surveyed and located the site where the city of Canyon now stands. He bought the land around Canyon City from the state for $3 an acre. On July 27, 1889 Randall County was organized and Canyon City was chosen as the County Seat. Mr. Conner was an instrumental figure in guiding the young community, where he ran a cattle business, established the first real estate office, established and operated the first post-office (from his dugout), and built the “Victoria” hotel. To attract settlers, Conner gave a lot to anyone who built a business or residence in Canyon City, and donated land for the building of a railway station, public schools, and West Texas State Normal College. L.G. Conner was also a founding member of Canyon City Masonic Lodge #730, which was chartered on December 11, 1891, making it one of the oldest lodges in the Texas Panhandle. The Charter members of the Lodge were: P.A. Dowlen, I.N. Hix, J.A. Leslie, W.F. Heller, W.H. Stewart, Al Shepherd, B.M. Black, J.A. Cook, J.O. Brown, D.J. Butler, D.P. Sink, L.G. Connor, A.T. Leslie, R.A. Campbell, and J.D. Trusty. T
