100 Years of Population Growth by Texas Counties-1850-1950
The population of each Texas county for each United States census report beginning with
1850, or first census after date of organization for counties organized after 1850, is given in the
table below. The census of 1850 was the first taken after annexation of Texas to the United
States. Blank space indicates that county was not organized at this census date, unless there
is direction to a footnote stating otherwise. Because of the frequent splitting up of Texas
counties to form new political units, and the consolidation of such units in some instances, one
can not always get a 'reliable comparison of figures unless one pays attention to the footnotes
at the end of the table.
