A Brief History of Copperas Cove Brought to you by Copperas Cove Electricians
The earliest inhabitants of the area can be dated back to about 4,000 BC. Originally nomadic people traveled through the area following the migrating buffalo population. When the Spanish came to the area, they encountered the Tonkawa, a small plains tribe, but also had interactions with the more powerful Comanche who controlled territory to the north and west.
Early settlers began migrating into the area as early as the 1830s, but settlements did not form until after the cattle industry developed, and the Chisholm Trail cut a feeder route through the area. In 1878, locals applied for a post office that was not officially granted until 1879 when the town agreed upon a name based on the nearby spring that had lots of minerals and tasted “funny” to those who drank from it.
From its founding in 1879 to 1929 Copperas Cove would grow from an agricultural community, with a strong focus on cotton to a prosperous city. In 1882, railroad would expand into the area providing a means for farmers and ranchers alike to get their product to markets. The city population would grow, business would expand, the town would elect its first mayor, and the residents created their first school district in the early 1900s. Copperas Cove like many communities in the United States would experience a decline as a result of the Great Depression, but that would change in 1942 when the United States government established a military base, Camp Hood 13 miles away. By the 1950s the town would grow from about 356 people at the beginning of 1940 to thousands of residents. Since then the population has continued to grow and prosper and today it is the largest city in Coryell County with over 30,000 residents.
