Magnolia

The year 1840 may have been the turning point in the history of what is now known as Magnolia, Texas. That was the year that the southern boundary of Montgomery County was extended to Spring Creek. This area was officially named Mink, Texas on September 3, 1885. The first known application for Magnolia was dated January 17, 1885, however; the official name change to Magnolia did not occur until July 28, 1903.
