About Seymour, TX

Seymour was founded by settlers from Oregon, who called the town Oregon City; it was originally located where the Western Trail crossed the Brazos River, which flows just south of the townsite. A post office was established in 1879, when the town's name was changed to honor local cowboy Seymour Munday, after whom nearby Munday was also named. The census of 1880 shows 78 people living in the 901 square mile county. The first settlers were ranchers. During those years, the Millett Brothers established a large ranch with the headquarters some 10 miles south of Seymour on Miller Creek.
