Harris County History

The area now known as Travis County, Texas has been inhabited for over 11,000 years. Previously the area was known as the Balcones Escarpment. Although there isn’t a lot known about the area’s history, we do know that by the time Europeans began to settle in the area, it belonged to the Comanche, Lipan Apache and the Tonkawa peoples.

In the 1600s, the Spanish Empire claimed the area which would later become Texas. However, the area that makes up Travis County was barely explored and there weren’t any attempts to settle or control the area until three temporary missions were set up near Barton Springs in 1730. In 1821, Mexico broke away from Spain and colonists were encouraged to settle in Texas. Many of these colonists were of American origin. It was in 1836 that the republic of Texas became independent from Mexico. In 1839, Austin was named the capital.
