what is the largest ranch in us history?

Question

What is the largest continuous and non-continuous ranch in US history?

The largest I have found is the XIT with 3+ million acres.

Answer 1

Probably XIT. Wikipedia says King Ranch is now : "one of the world's largest ranches (larger than Rhode Island). It is the largest ranch in the United States. The 825,000 acre (3,340 km²) ranch ..."

Answer 2

The XIT, which means ten in Texas, the ten meaning the number of counties the ranch was in, was the largest.

Answer 3

As severe exceeded and UnAmerican as Bush/Cheney are, i've got puzzled if the wealthy persons have desperate that the ambience and inhabitants issues have made issues hopeless. So the belief is for the wealthy persons to snatch all they'd and perchance head off to Argentina or another place they'd carry % up and experience out the worldwide warming (they are saying they do no longer have faith in). i've got heard those comparable rumors of Bush/Cheney getting land outdoors the U. S.. you got to determine that funds is now thoroughly worldwide - and Bush/Cheney undergo no allegiance to the U. S. anymore in any consumer-friendly way. Their corporation is to actual clutter the government, team it with incompetents, call our oldest rules into question. while issues start to crumble, they'll have their very own small armies (like Blackwater).

Answer 4

My best guess would be The Taft Ranch in South Texas

Answer 5

continuous and non-continuous ... is the sticking point. If I remember correctly, and I may not, most of these large ranches own property in other countries and areas of the U.S.

Answer 6

CC Catle Company owned by the Slaughter family in the 1800's...also drov the first herd of cattle to market
