The County Judge's office in Throckmorton (940-849-8805) is the county's general contact.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

What the county posts. Throckmorton County's site - its menus, the County Judge's and Commissioners Court pages and the Contact Us list of county offices - has no veterans page and names no veterans service officer. How the county funds it. The Budgets page posts only the 2023 budget and the proposed 2024 budget (filed August 15, 2023); the 2024 proposal carried a "Veteran Officer Expenses" line of $1,500, down from $2,000 budgeted for 2023 (with $122.88 and $175.00 spent in the two years before). The Commissioners Court approved the 2026 budget on September 22, 2025 and adopted the 2027 budget on September 28, 2026, both 5-0, but neither is posted, so whether the line survives is unread. A county of under 200,000 people is not required to keep an officer (Government Code 434.032; see the Texas entry). TexVet. TexVet's county list gives no local officer for Throckmorton; it lists the Texas Veterans Commission's Wichita Falls office, (940) 716-8599. The Commission's claims counselors help any veteran free (see the Texas entry); call before travelling to Wichita Falls. County contacts. The County Judge's office, Judge Caleb Hodges, 105 North Minter, P.O. Box 700, Throckmorton, Texas 76483; telephone 940-849-8805, fax 940-849-8811.
