History in a Pecan Shell

In 1896 the community had a one-teacher, one-room school that served thirty-seven students. History of the town has either been lost, misplaced or doesn’t exist. No population figures are available and the former town only exists on detailed county maps. The nearest cemeteries to Eureka are Fairview and Pierce’s Chapel.
