About 1830, George Erath was hired to survey the land for colonization. Although he didn't have the title of explorer, he liked naming things, too. While he was surveying near the ninety-eighth meridian, he named two tributaries the Meridian Creek and the Meridian Knobs. The name "Meridian" stuck, too, because when it came time to name the county seat, folks decided to call it just that

You got it mostly right...next time you go down there spend some time looking around...you will find out the rest of the answer! If you actually spend some time looking into the local history (locally, that is)
