Nueces County, including the entire area south of Bexar County west to the Rio Grande and east to the Gulf of Mexico, was formed from San Patricio County in 1846 and organized the same year. Between 1850 and 1861 the Nueces County area was further divided to form several new counties. -Handbook of Texas Online: Nueces County |
