History

The city of Henderson was developed by European Americans before the State of Texas was founded. It was established on land donated by W.B. Ochiltree and James Smith; it became the county seat of Rusk County when an act of legislature developed Rusk County on January 16, 1843. The First Methodist and First Baptist Churches were established in 1842 and 1845, respectively. Though a Baptist church was arranged in 1845, the current First Baptist Church was restructured in 1850. [5] The very first courthouse, made from wood, was completed in 1849. After the Civil War, the International and Great Northern Railroad crossed through Rusk County, however bypassed Henderson. In 1869, a White mob lynched five Black men without trial, including two preachers, in the public square outside the courthouse. [6] In 1874, the Henderson and Overton Branch Railroad Company built a stretch of railway connecting Henderson to the tracks running through Overton. This stretch of railway was later sold to the Missouri Pacific Railroad (now Union Pacific) and remains in use to this day.

In 1878, a fire destroyed the court house, and a brick court house was integrated in its place. This motivated the building and construction of numerous other brick structures, consisting of the Howard Dickinson House, now a historic website.

In 1930, C. M. "Dad" Joiner generated the Daisy Bradford # 3 Discovery Well 6 miles northwest of Henderson. [7] The discovery of oil in October 1930 produced a growing economy in the area, with the population of Henderson increasing from 2,000 to over 10,000 in a few months. The oil fields in and surrounding Henderson, part of the high-producing, five-county East Texas Oil Field, continue to provide a big part of the wealth of the town, county, and area.

During The Second World War, airmen cadets from the Royal Air Force, flying from their training base at Terrell, Texas, regularly flew to Henderson on training flights. The community served as a stand-in for the British for Dunkirk, France, which is the exact same distance from London, England, as Henderson is from Terrell. [8]
1860 Henderson fire

On August 5, 1860, a fire broke out and burned many of the growing town of Henderson. Forty-three buildings, including 2 hotels, were ruined in the fire, for a loss of $220,000.

According to the Depot Museum, a man called John Crow recalled the fire as follows:

I was about 8 years of ages when Henderson burned. I went to town with my dad the day after the fire. It burned every home as well as I remember, except the Flanagan Brick Building. I remember I was barefooted and careful not to burn my feet. My dad stated at the time they thought a fellow called Green Herndon, a union guy, had actually employed a negro lady to burn Henderson. Herndon was a northerner and was a noticable opponent of secession. On the negro female's testament, a mob gathered, threw a loop around his neck, tied it to a saddle horse, which walked around the general public square dragging Herndon to death. Then they hung the body to a tree and shot it complete of holes ... War remained in preparation and individuals were in fits of anger. When the war broke out, the guys got all the files they could find and went to the blacksmith stores and made knives and swords. There was much laughter and I remember they stated, "We'll whip those damn Yankees with axes and butcher knives. Everyone was anxious to go." [9]
John Crow was John Stephen Crow, born in Henderson on March 5, 1852 and died there on October 19, 1952. He is buried at Maple Grove Cemetery. His dad, Moses Melton Crow, became part of a large group of household, good friends, and neighbors who left the location of Henry and Clayton Counties, Georgia, and were early settlers in Rusk County. The surnames of these early inhabitants include Burks, Cates, Crow, Mitchell, and others.
