The history of Richmond started in 1822 when a group of settlers from Austin traveled up the Brazos River and stopped in the proximity of present-day Richmond. They ended up building a fort there and named it “Fort Bend.” Upon the establishment Richmond, it was decided to name it after the English town of Richmond. It was one of the first 19 communities to be incorporated by the Republic of Texas. Many of the first residents of Richmond became prominent figures in Texas’ history. Some of these people include Mirabeau Lamar, Deaf Smith, and Jane Long, all of which are buried in Richmond. On August 16, 1889, the Battle of Richmond took place here.
