Garner, chairman of the history department at the then Stephen F. Austin State Teachers College. The group met in Nacogdoches in 1927 and annually thereafter on college campuses in Huntsville, Commerce, and Nacogdoches, until it disbanded during the Great Depression. Among those who read papers at its meetings were Eugene C. Barker of the University of Texas at Austin, Martha Emmons of Nacogdoches High School and later Baylor College, and the Reverend George Louis Crocket (1861–1936), a retired Protestant Episcopal minister from Nacogdodhes, who served as the first associational president. The organization was thereafter revived in 1962 under the leadership of Ralph Wright Steen (1905–1980), the Stephen F. Austin University president and C.K. Chamberlain, then history department chairman at Stephen F. Austin. Two of the ETHA awards are hence named for Steen and Chamberlain.In February 2010, ETHA held its first ever joint meeting in Fort Worth with the older West Texas Historical Association, based at the Southwest Collection of Texas Tech University in Lubbock.".
