NESBITT, TEXAS (Robertson County). Nesbitt, just west of Farm Road 46 and seven miles southeast of Bremond in northern Robertson County, was established in the late 1880s. By 1892 it had a cotton gin, a gristmill, a schoolteacher, and a physician. A post office operated there from 1886 to 1905. In the 1940s Nesbitt had seventy-five residents, two stores, a church, a school, and several scattered dwellings. In the 1970s and 1980s county maps showed scattered dwellings and a cemetery in the area.
