History of Liberty

Liberty is the third oldest town in Texas. In 1756, the first settlement was made on this site when the Spaniards established a mission. By 1825, many industrious people from the United States had already come to this colony in the Coahuila-Texas province. In 1831, the Mexican government established a municipality here, on the site of Smith's Plantation and the town of Atascosito was renamed "Village of the Most Holy Trinity of Liberty", which was anglicized and shortened to simply "Liberty". The town was incorporated in 1837.
