History in
a Pecan Shell
In the 1880s a
school was built here and a few years later (1890s) a Methodist Church
was organized, using the school as a meeting place for the congregation.
Religious revivals were held here, drawing people from Live
Oak and neighboring Bee
County.
Around 1920, the building was moved to Cadiz
(Bee County) and Lebanon,
which never developed a commercial district or had a post office,
soon dissolved. Lebanon had only been included on local maps and it
was not included on later ones. The last hint that Lebanon had once
been active is in the graveyard of the former church. |
