J. Hennin near a large village of Tejas Indians and the San Francisco de los Tejas Mission. Hennin chose to name the settlement Neches after the nearby river. A post office operated under that name from January 1847 to July 1848 and under the name Naches from 1853 until 1882. In 1887 an application was made for a new post office, however the name Neches had, in the interim, been designated for another town. With duplicate names prohibited by the postal service, the citizens changed the name to Weches.〔
