Hardin Counties Texas United States
Hardin County was formed in 1858 from parts of Liberty and Jefferson counties. It was named for five brothers: Augustine, Benjamin, Franklin, Milton, and William Hardin, who were early settlers in Liberty County. Saratoga, after J.F. Cotton discovered medicinal springs there, was named after the famous New York resort. However, once commercial oil development began there in 1901, people lost interest in the springs.
