Valley' is in southern Hidalgo County. As the motto suggests Donna lies
in the Rio Grande Valley and attracts many visitors who are interested in
the many and varied birds that frequent this location. McAllen is thirteen
miles southwest of Donna off US Highway 83.The name Donna was after a local
ranch owner Donna Hooks Fletcher who settled here in 1908. At this time
the town was made up of two parts, Donna and East Donna. East Donna was
the Mexican district of the town. Donna was incorporated as the city of
Donna in 1911. A bridge is being built to cross the Rio Grande and give
access between Donna and the Mexican city of Rio Bravo.
