Discover Conroe
Conroe is named for Isaac Conroe, a Northerner and Union cavalry officer who settled in Houston after the Civil War and became a lumberman. He founded a sawmill in the area in 1881, and the community, first called Conroe's Switch, built its early economy on lumber cut from the surrounding pine forest, drawing workers through the late 19th century. The Conroe Mill School opened in 1886, and the Conroe Normal and Industrial College served African American students.
More about Conroe
Six lynchings were recorded in Montgomery County around the turn of the century, some of them at the courthouse in Conroe. In 1922 a young Black man named Joe Winters was burned alive on the courthouse square for allegedly attacking a young white woman; in the Black community he was known to be in a consensual relationship with her. In 1941 Bob White, a Black man first convicted by an all-white jury in Livingston of assaulting a white woman, was shot to death in the Conroe courthouse during his third trial. With help from the Houston NAACP, his case had been appealed because he had been denied a lawyer and tortured during questioning, and it had reached the U.S. Supreme Court.
