The city of Terrell is on U.S. Highway 80 and State highways 34 and 205, thirty miles east of Dallas in northern Kaufman County. The town was named in honor of Robert A. Terrell, a pioneer settler whose farm lay on its western edge. Terrell was incorporated in 1875. In 1892 Terrell became the headquarters for the Texas Midland Railroad. During World War II, British pilots trained at Terrell on an airfield that later became the present municipal airport.
