Wilbarger County was established in 1858 from lands formerly assigned to the Bexar District. It was named for settlers Josiah P. and Mathias Wilbarger. Though the area was within the boundary of the Peters colony, because of Indian hostilities it attracted no settlers until 1878, when the first settlement was made and the county was attached to Clay County for judicial purposes. Wilbarger County was organized in 1881, and the town of Vernon was designated the county seat. -Handbook of Texas Online: Wilbarger County |
