"Before
this courthouse was built in 1922, the county government was housed in the 1917
courthouse in Sarita, then the county seat of Willacy County. When Kenedy
County was organized in 1921, the boundaries of Willacy County were redrawn and
the county seat was moved to Raymondville.
The 1917 courthouse in
Sarita then became the Kenedy County courthouse."
