History
FM 1419 was originally designated in 1949, from the junction with FM 511 to South Point. Later that year, the northward extension from South Point to SH 4 was approved; a portion of that extension replaced FM 511. The western addition, to SH 4 in central Brownsville, was designated in 1955. In 1995, the eastern section of the route, from FM 511 to SH 4 east of Brownsville, was officially redesignated as Urban Road 1419 (UR 1419); as with other urban roads, TxDOT continues to sign the route using the Farm Road marker.
