Corinth, incorporated in 1960, is a relatively new North Texas community. The history of Denton County began with the Kichai and Lenape Native American tribes. Peters Colony landowners established a settlement in the 1840s, which was part of Fannin County until the annexation of Texas. The county was officially formed in 1846. Denton County’s Courthouse-on-the-Square was built in 1896 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
