As of the 2010 census, its population was 8,895.[1] The county seat is Coleman.[2] The county was founded in 1858 and organized in 1864.[3] It is named for Robert M. Coleman, a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence and soldier at the Battle of San Jacinto. HistoryAround 10,000 BC, indigenous peoples of the Americas were the first inhabitants. Later inhabitants included the Jumano, Lipan Apache, and Comanche.[4] In 1632, Father Salas led an expedition to the upper Colorado River.[4] In 1650, Captains Hernán Martín and Diego del Castillo explored the western portion of the county to the Concho River, and returned with pearls.[4] Diego de Guadalajara followed the same path as Martín and Castillo in 1654.[4] From 1683–84, Juan Domínguez de Mendoza established a short-lived Quicuchabe mission.[5] In 1855, the county's oldest community, Trickham, was founded as a trading post for the ranching activities of John Chisum.[6] Coleman County was formed from Brown and Travis Counties in 1858. The county is named for Robert M. Coleman, a signer of the Texas Declaration of Independence.[4] 1861 Rich Coffey settles the communities of Leaday and Voss.[7] In 1876, the site was chosen for Coleman, the county seat.[8] The community of Santa Anna was established in 1879. It is named after the Santa Anna Mountains, which in turn, are named after Comanche Chief Santana.[9] In 1886 the Santa Fe Railway completed a spur to Coleman from nearby Coleman (now San Angelo[10]) Junction.[11] In 1908, the first oil well came in near Trickham.[12] In 1914 the Santa Fe completed the Coleman Cutoff between Coleman, Lubbock, and Clovis.[13] This linked its California lines with the Texas Gulf Coast and put Coleman on the road's main line. Coleman's distinctive[14] brick-and-stucco Santa Fe depot was completed in 1915. Oil was discovered north of Coleman on the J. P. Morris ranch in 1917.[4] The Coleman County Medical Center opened in 1923.[4] By 1925, tenant farmers comprised 63% of local agriculture.[4] In 1930, the Coleman County population peaked at 23,669.[4] The Coleman County oilfields produce over a million barrels in 1948.[4] In 2000, Wind Clean Corporation, harnessing energy from wind power, was founded.[4] GeographyAccording to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of {{convert|1281|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|1262|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|19|sqmi}} (1.5%) is covered by water.[15] Major highways
