Also known as Maud, Munday came from the joining of two separate towns located in the heart of Knox prairie. Today, Munday is split into east and west sections. Its name came from the first postmaster R. P Munday. The Wichita Valley line provided service beginning in 1906, and that year Munday incorporated. It was easily the largest town in the county with 968 people in 1910. Cotton has always been a significant component of the local economy. In 1900 Munday became a center for vegetable processing. Texas A&M University opened a vegetable research center in Munday in 1971. The chamber of commerce sponsors a Knox County vegetable festival each June.
