Wood County is a county located in the U.S. state of Texas. As of the 2010 census, the population was 41,964. Its county seat is Quitman. The county was named for George T. Wood, governor of Texas from 1847 to 1849.
The first documented European exploration of what is now Wood County took place in the late 18th century, when Pedro Vial, was sent on expeditions by the Spanish governor of Texas. After marching all the way to Santa Fe in 1787, he headed east to Natchitoches. The following year, he passed through today's Wood County on his way back to San Antonio. There is some archeological evidence to suggest that a French trading post stood along Mill Race Creek in the early 1700s near the site of the modern town of Hainsville. It is also thought that the French may have build a military post called Fort Ledout near Black Oak in Wood County. However, other than the archeological evidence, little is known about any possible French settlements.
