Wheeler County, County in Texas Panhandle, United States.
Wheeler County extends across 915 square miles of land, featuring agricultural fields and intersecting highways connecting multiple communities in Texas.
The Texas Legislature established Wheeler County in 1876, naming it after Supreme Court Justice Royall Tyler Wheeler and organizing it in 1879.
The Pioneer West Museum in Shamrock preserves the regional heritage through exhibitions of local artifacts and historical documents from the Texas Panhandle.
Interstate 40 and U.S. Highway 83 provide direct access to Wheeler County, with the city of Wheeler serving as the administrative center.
The county transformed from a dry territory to permit alcohol sales in 2010 when Shamrock residents voted to change local regulations.
