I think there is an error in the current tzdata/northamerica file regarding Texas. It claims that Texas follows America/Chicago.
Typically when there's a comment to that effect in the tz database, it's referring only to time stamps starting with 1970. If you go back far enough, every city, town, and village had its own little time zone, and the tz database does not attempt to cover that. Its coverage of time stamps before 1970 are only for locations that have differed after 1970.
