History
in a Pecan Shell
The former community is located one half mile east of the former International-Great
Northern Railroad tracks. A date of origin is unknown but in the mid
1930s there still remained a school and two churches which served
farmers of the area. The school merged with the Whitehouse
ISD in the early 1950s. By the 1970s the town was already well on
it’s way to becoming a ghost town with only the New Canaan Church
and a cemetery to mark what was left of the community. |
