In 1995, the Brigance Family built and operated the Majestic 6 Theatre in Bonham, Texas; where they raised their three children. They followed this a couple of years later by building what is now the Majestic 12 Theatre in Greenville, Texas.  In 2000, the Brigance's decided that Bonham could use a nice restaurant close to the movie theatre and so they built one across the road from the Majestic 6.  A naming contest was held and their sister-in-law won the contest with "Shumardii's". She chose this name because the land the resturant is built upon is surrounded by beautiful Red Shumard Oak trees.  Since that time, the Brigances have built a second restaurant in Greenville.  The family now owns and operates the Majestic 6 Theatre and Shumardii's Restaurant & Bar in Bonham as well as the Majestic 12 Theatre and Shumardii's Restaurant & Bar in Greenville.
