Navarro County, Administrative division in north central Texas, United States.
Navarro County is an administrative division in north central Texas with gently rolling blacklands, wooded areas, and prairie regions across its expanse. The Trinity River runs through the area and shapes its natural landscape.
The county was established in 1846, carved out from Robertson County during the early development of Texas statehood. This period marked rapid growth and organization across the region.
The name comes from José Antonio Navarro, a Texas signer of the Declaration of Independence. This historical connection remains part of the local identity today.
The county is crossed by roads connecting its main towns and communities for easy travel through the area. Keep in mind this is a rural region where distances can be greater than you might expect in more populated zones.
The region has been an important oil-producing area since 1895, with substantial crude oil extracted over the decades. Beyond oil, other natural resources like limestone and clay continue to be mined from the land.
