Presidio County Information
The county was settled in 1875 and the population was 7,818 at the 2010 census. The county seat is Marfa and Presidio is the largest community. The total area of the county is 3,856 square miles. The county was named for the ancient border settlement of Presidio del Norte. It is east from the Mexican border.
Wagon trains on the Chihuahua Trail reported seeing unexplained lights in the mid-19th Century. The first recorded incident of the Marfa Lights was in 1883 when Robert Reed Ellison and cowhands camped at Mitchell Flats. They thought the lights might have been Apaches, but later found no evidence of an Apache encampment. Since that time, the lights continue to appear between Marfa and Paisano Pass. Speculation and fascination spark imaginations about the source. Some say they are caused by car headlights, some say extraterrestrial visitors. One theory is that the lights are like a mirage caused by atmospheric conditions. No one really knows for sure. Marfa celebrates with a Mystery Lights Festival every Labor Day.
