Texas Escapes
"In early 1915 a post office was established and was given the name McAdoo, after Woodrow Wilson's son-in-law who was also Secretary of the Treasury.
That same year (1915) the Prairie View School was moved to McAdoo and saw service as a meeting place for three churches as well as its intended purpose."
