Goliad County is located in the southeastern region of the great state of Texas. The area holds historical significance dating back to the Spanish colonial era. Originally inhabited by Native American tribes, the Spanish established a mission and presidio in Goliad in 1749, known as Mission Nuestra Senora de Loreto and Presidio La Bahia. With this establishment, Goliad became one of the first Spanish land settlements in Texas.

In the early 19th century, Goliad played a crucial role in Texas' battle for independence from Mexico. The Battle of Goliad in October 1835 was one of the first victories of the Texas Revolution, asserting the Texans' strong resistance against Mexican forces. In March 1836, the tragic Goliad Massacre occurred, wherein more than 300 Texan prisoners were executed under General Santa Anna's orders, intensifying the fight for Texas independence.

Goliad County was officially established in 1836, and the town of Goliad, formerly known as La Bahia, became the county seat. The region's economy was primarily built around agriculture, particularly cattle ranching and the cultivation of crops like cotton, corn, and melons.

A fun fact about Goliad County is that it is home to the Fannin Oak, a famous oak tree believed to be over 300 years old. Legend has it that in 1836, Colonel William A. Fannin, who played a pivotal role in the Texas Revolution, tied his horse to the tree shortly before his arrest and execution during the Goliad Massacre. The tree has since become a symbol of Texan resilience and a historic site for visitors.
