Waller County, located in the great state of Texas, has a rich historical background that dates back to the early 19th century. The county was established in April 1873 and named after Edwin Waller, who was an early American politician, signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence, and the first mayor of the capital city, Austin.

Before its establishment as a county, the region was inhabited by the Karankawa and Tonkawa Native American tribes. The 1821 Mexican Independence marked the beginning of Anglo-American colonization of Texas, and soon, the area that would become Waller County was settled by pioneers. The colonization continued under Stephen F. Austin, known as the "Father of Texas," and the Old Three Hundred settlers, comprising 297 land grants within Austin's Colony, encompassing parts of Waller County.

Waller County played a significant role in the fight for Texas independence too. The Battle of San Jacinto-where Texas won its independence from Mexico-featured several local men from the region. After the victory and the formation of the Republic of Texas in 1836, people started to settle in the area more extensively.

An essential means of transportation during the early years of Waller County was through the steamboats traveling up and down the Brazos River, with plantation owners using the waterway for trade purposes. However, this would change with the arrival of the railroad in the late 1850s. The Hempstead Railroad played a significant role in Waller County's development due to its strategic location that connected Houston, Austin, and Bryan.

Agriculture has been crucial to Waller County's economy, with cotton production being dominant in the 19th and early 20th centuries, followed by cattle and poultry production. Today, Waller County remains an agricultural hub and has diversified with other industries like manufacturing, retail, and educational services.

A fun fact about Waller County is that it is home to one of the earliest racially integrated universities in the United States, the Prairie View A&M University. Founded in 1876, this historically black university offered higher education to African Americans during the Reconstruction era and has since produced countless leaders in various fields.
