*Census of incorporated towns of Texas taken in 1858 by assessors and collectors in each county.
tFederal census of western part of Texas for 1870. as given in Texas Almanac for 1871.
tAn estimate of that date.
Pelly, Goose Creek and Baytown were merged in 1947 and the single community was given the name of
the latter-Baytown. Baytown was unincorporated prior to this merger and did not show in any previous
census. However, Pelly and Goose Creek were previously incorporated, hence the census figures for them in
1930 and 1940.
Included Huntsville prison population.
t#Figures include the population in Texas only; the population of the city including the part in Arkansas
was 27,366 in 1930: in 1940 it was 28.840: in 1950 it was 40.490: in 1960 it was 50.006. The ratio of Texas-
Arkansas population has been approximately the same. For example, it was 1.883 in 1880, including Texas
part only, and 3,223 including the part in Arkansas.
South San Antonio annexed to San Antonio in 1944.
