Texas, West Virginia
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas,_West_Virginia
The last public hanging in West Virginia was held in Jackson County in December 1897.
Very Texan of them.
In May 1860, the first well in the state for producing crude oil was drilled at Burning Springs.
Texas is not the only state with oil money
West Virginia University was established on February 7, 1867 under the name of "Agricultural College of West Virginia."
I won't hold this against you that you were once Aggies just as long as you don't dress as soldiers and build faulty structures
Mary Lou Retton, Olympic gold metalist, is a Texas ex who was born in West Virginia and is married to former UT QB Shannon Kelly
West Virginia is 1/10 of the size of Texas with 1/14 of the population. You could put the entire state in the Texas Panhandle and have room left over.
Without the people of West Virginia this panting would have not returned home

More importantly a lot of the original settlers in Texas can trace their roots back to Virginia and some even West Virginia.
A lot of the defenders of the Alamo were former residents of the Shenandoah Valley so quite possibly they were West Virginians.
