Walker County, Texas was organized 6 Aug 1846 by an act of the State of Texas Legislature.  The area was originally named for Robert J. Walker of Mississippi, who introduced into the United States Congress the resolution for the annexation of Texas; because he was a Unionist during the Civil War, however, in 1863 the state legislature changed the honoree to Samuel H. Walker
