History
The Floresville area has been economically viable since the mid-1700s. The Spaniards founded Rancho de Las Cabras to serve as a principal provider of meat and dairy products for Mission Francisco de La Espada in San Antonio. Floresville (originally named Lodi) was founded in 1867, established as the Wilson County seat in 1873, and incorporated in 1890.
