Grand Prairie is a suburb of both Dallas and Fort Worth and had a population of 175,396 at the 2010 census. The city of Grand... Prairie was first established as Dechman by Alexander McRae Dechman in 1863. Dechman, who was from Birdville, learned that he could trade his oxen and wagons for land in Dallas County. In 1863, Dechman bought 239.5 acres of land on the eastern side of the Trinity River and 100 acres of timber land on the west side of the river for a broken-down wagon, oxen team and US$200 in Confederate money. He tried to establish a home on the property, but ran into difficulties, so he returned to his family in Birdville before joining in the Civil War. In 1867 he filed a town plat consisting of 50 acres with Dallas County. Grand Prairie is also home to a phrase that no one ever seems to use. "got em' coach" was started as a joke by a pig farmer but due to the lack of big words in the town it soon caught on among the town people. Today you can hear the phrase in other parts of the U.S.
