History

FM 2634 was first designated in 1959 for a road in Comanche County running from SH 36 in Comanche northeast 5.7 miles (9.2 km). In 1960, the FM 2634 designation on this road was replaced with FM 1689. Paved after the development of Lake Nocona in 1960, the current FM 2634 was designated onto its current alignment in 1961 and connects the lake with Nocona and smaller communities in north central Montague County.[1] Nocona became the economic hub of northern Montague County by the turn of the 20th Century, and Lake Nocona or "Farmer's Creek Reservoir' was developed in 1959-60 to supply the city of Nocona with water. FM 2634 connects the various housing developments and recreational areas around the lake with Nocona.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Lake Nocona, Montague County.
