History

Formed in 1907 from Comanche County

An old deed may name a county that no longer exists, or a boundary that has since moved.

Jefferson County was created on November 16, 1907, from Comanche County and former Indian Territory. The county was named after Thomas Jefferson. In 1925, Jefferson County lost territory to Love County.
