On Gray Texas
Photographer's
Note:
I got some good pictures of what is actually on the ground.
I think the most important one is the first one, the dog. When he
came strolling by with them “boots” on I just couldn’t resist getting
a shot of him. Figured you might enjoy seeing it also.
Take note of the two pics - “The Gray-Potter Community Center.”
It is actually 6-miles south of “Gray”, the intersection of highways
TX-49 & TX-727. Also note the Historical Marker, even as it is located
at Gray it really is about Potters
Point six miles to the south.
As nothing comes up on the internet I will state this: Gray Texas
is an unincorporated community in northeast Texas in Marion
County Zip Code 75657. It is located at the intersections of highways
TX-49 and TX-727, 6-miles north of Caddo
Lake, about 2-miles from the Louisiana border, about 19-miles
east of Jefferson,
about 225-miles north of Houston,
and about 1,250-miles from New York City.
It was named after a local politician. - Gerald
