History
in a Pecan Shell
For a sizable town (Texas standards), Corinth has little history.
It dates from 1880 when the railroad (the Dallas and Wichita) built
through. The town’s entry in the Handbook of Texas lists these few
facts and the various populations over the years but only since 1970.
From a mere 461 people in 1970, Corinth was near Interstate Highway
35 and as a result, grew alongside the neighboring towns. A few families
continue to farm the land that they have owned for generations, but
most residents commute to work in Denton
or the Metroplex. |
