During the nineteenth century, Garland began to grow and developed. The city’s first incorporated communities were called Duck Creek and Embree. The area was primarily an agricultural community, with cotton as its primary crop. In 1886, the Santa Fe Railroad bypassed the old community and created a new one, Embree. After the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad, the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad constructed a station near the two communities and called it new Duck Creek.
