History in
a Pecan Shell
A
local family (The Guytons) contributed the name to this fledgling
community in 1840.
Turkey Creek
was a contender in the 1843 election for permanent county seat.
It shared the same fate as nearby Mount
Vernon when Brenham
won the election.
Nothing today remains of the community.
