Montague County, located in the great state of Texas, was established in 1857 and named after Daniel Montague, a surveyor and soldier in the Mexican-American War. The county is situated in the northern region of Texas, close to the border with Oklahoma.

The area of Montague County was initially inhabited by various Native American tribes such as the Wichita, Comanche, and Kiowa before the arrival of European settlers. The first European expedition to the area was led by Spanish explorer Francisco Vasquez de Coronado in 1541. Anglo-American settlers started to arrive in the region in the 1840s, and the county was one of the few locations to witness the growth of ranching and agriculture in the 1800s.

Throughout its history, the economy of Montague County has relied heavily on farming, ranching, and oil production. The importance of agriculture and livestock can be seen with the arrival of various railroads, including the Fort Worth and Denver City and the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific in the 1880s and early 1900s. These railroads allowed for better transportation and trade, supporting the booming cattle industry.

One fun fact about Montague County is that it served as a significant location during the conflict between Native American tribes and American settlers. The Battle of Stone Houses in 1837 took place in the county, where a group of Texas Rangers faced the indigenous Kichai people. In 1873, it was the location of the last significant battle between the U.S. military and Native American tribes on Texas soil - the Battle of the Little Wichita River.

Today, Montague County is known for its rich history, beautiful landscapes, and charming small communities. With a population of around 19,000, it maintains its rural roots while displaying an eagerness for growth and progress.
