History in
a Pecan Shell
Valera was once
a part of the George P. Cleveland Ranch.
Valera was at its zenith just after World
War II. At one time there were 17 businesses in Valera.
Luckily for the current Coleman
County visitor, Valera still has a restaurant open on the SW corner
of the Intersection. |

Note:
When we came back in August to visit the ghosts towns we missed in
May we revisited Valera in order to check out Big O's BBQ. Big O's
might be the best BBQ I have ever had. -
