History in
a Pecan Shell
This town with
its chamber-of-commerce name is now little more than a cemetery.
Started as an irrigated-farm project in the late 1920s, it received
mail at its own post office for less than a year (1944-45).
Even the town’s railroad depot went by another name (Santa
Cruz). The population was a mere ten people in 1940 and the town
has now merged into Santa Cruz
and La Puerta. |
