FM 2641 was originally designated in 1959 in Motley County. This highway was later redesignated FM 656 in 1960.[4] The current FM 2641 was designated in 1961, running from FM 2130 to US 84. The highway was further extended east in 1968 to US 87 (later I-27) and later to US 62/US 82/SH 114 (Idalou Road) in 1973. In 1995, the section of FM 2641 from FM 1264 to Idalou Road was internally designated by Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) as Urban Road 2641.[5]
