"There was a sign on a road entering Walker co which read “Don’t let the Sun go down on your black arse in Walker county .”
I didn’t believe it but then during the mid 70s I worked with a guy from Walker co and he assured me it was true."
There was a similar sign in Comanche County Texas when I was younger. Also, Comanche and Hamilton County were the only two counties in Texas that had no black residents in the whole county. This was in the late 80's

There are four counties in Texas that have no Black residents currently.
Loving, Kenedy, Jeff Davis, King. And there are probably 15 others that effectively have no Black residents. (< 0.5%).
And all these Sundown town signs people keep talking about were basically gone by the mid 1960s. And the ones that did exist usually said "no coloreds after dark as opposed to " anything about black asses". Church people would have never stood for that.
