Milton Daniel

Milton Enoch Daniel (October 6, 1890 – April 16, 1958) was an American independent oil operator, college football player and coach, and an important figure in the history of Texas Christian University (TCU).

Milton Daniel Hall on the TCU campus is named in his honor, as is the Daniel-Meyer Athletic Complex.

Following the death of his mother when he was 10, Daniel and two brothers spent a short time in a Methodist orphanage before coming under the guardianship of a cousin, E. E. Cammack, in Waco.

When Daniel was 16, he left for Texas Christian University (TCU) for prep school and then enrolled in the college in 1908.

He was director of Denison & Pacific Railway Co. and the first president of the West Central Texas Municipal Water District, a post he resigned on 1 July 1957, due to failing health.
