Communities of Young County
| Organized settlement of Young County began with Fort Belknap in 1851, the Lower Brazos Indian Resevation in 1854 and the town of Belknap in 1856. Early settlers were attracted to this area by the promise of protection by a Federal fort. Soon, pioneers began moving along the Brazos River to found small communities and towns. Communities were loosely knit farms and ranches that met at a common location (church, school, etc.) for educational, religious and social activities. Towns are closely defined locations of residences and businesses usually offering additional services to their residents. The following towns, communities, and schools have been located in Young County. Many are familiar and some are forgotten but each community made up the fabric of Young County, Texas. |
