County created 12/1837 by Republic of Texas from Washington County. The borders originally extended from the Brazos River on the west to the Trinity on the east, and from the Old San Antonio Road on the north to the San Jacinto River on the south, an area which included future Grimes, Walker, San Jacinto, Madinson and Waller Counties. The present boundaries were established after the formation of Waller County in 1870. Montgomery was the first County Seat. Willis was voted in 1874 but moved back to Montgomery in 1880. In 1889 the county seat was moved to Conroe.-Handbook of Texas Online: Montgomery County |
