History HINDES, TEXAS. Hindes is just east of State Highway 95 four miles from the Frio county line in southwest Atascosa County. It was named for George F. Hindes, a local rancher who settled there in 1856 and donated land for the San Antonio, Uvalde and Gulf Railroad right-of-way in 1912. He also gave land to establish a town on the rail line. Cotton and corn were the major crops raised in the area in the early 1900s. By 1913 Hindes had a post office, a bank, a general store, a gin, and two churches. A school for children in the surrounding farm community had opened in 1912; it had six rooms. The population of Hindes reached a peak of 100 in 1927 but declined to fifty in the 1930s.
