The last of 2008. It is a pitty to see these two important elements of modern society going down the drain here, after so many years of struggle and hard work.
The first traces of human inhabitation of the area that is now Hill Count date back to the year 1300. By the eighteenth century, groups of Waco and Tawakoni had established hunting camps in the eastern portions of the county.
European settlement began with the Spanish expeditions, with the first Anglo settler arriving (and rather promptly being killed in after ignoring Spanish warning to leave) 1801. Stephen F. Austin's 1822 survey map included the Hill County area. The area later became Navarro County.
In 1852, a petition was circulated to divide Navarro county, and in 1852, Hill county was formed, and named after George Washington Hill, who had served as Sam Houston's Secretary of War.
By 1870, the county's population had doubled, reaching 7,453 people, and sometime in 1871 or 1872, the Chisholm Trail had reached the northwest corner of the county, and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway reached the county in 1881.
Originally spelled "Hillsborough", the county seat of Hillsboro was established when the county was formed in 1853, and soon had a school and post office, as well as a wood framed courthouse. The town grew rapidly after the railroads reached the area in the 1880s. An increase in cotton production between 1890 and 1910 resulted in a building boom, including numerous Queen Anne style houses in the community, and the current courthouse.
The three story 1890 Second Empire style building in the town square is either the the county's third or fourth courthouse, depending on which source is cited.
On January 1, 1993, an electrical short started a fire that caused the bell tower to collapse, and destroyed most of the rest of the building. An extensive restoration was embarked upon, including fundraising concerts by Hill County native Willie Nelson. Restoration was completed, and the courthouse rededicated, in 1999.
In 1995, the Texas Historical Commission undertook a two year project to document the 55 oldest courthouses in the state, and the Hill County Courthouse because something of a poster child for what turned into their Courthouse Preservation Program that began in 1999.

They were fighting over whether or not to let the daughter from our side wed the son from the other. It was so much fun! And this year, my son actually enjoyed watching it!! (bonus!)

En su primera visita a Bilbao para reforzar la colaboración en materia de derechos humanos con instituciones vascas y la Universidad de Deusto, la abogada y activista Kerry Kennedy, presidenta de Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, ofreció el 25 de octubre de 2024 una conferencia en la que puso el foco en las víctimas de guerras y genocidios, cuyos derechos humanos han sido y siguen siendo cruelmente violentados. Al respecto, lamenta que sea su país, Estados Unidos, quien aún hoy sigue proporcionando armas con las que millones de civiles están siendo asesinados en Gaza.
