History in
a Pecan Shell
Once located North
of FM 646 and just East of State Highway 146 between Kemah
and Clifton-by-the-Sea, Bayview was an unincorporated village.
It did appear on maps at one time and had a post office of its own
which operated from 1902 through 1913. Mail was later rerouted through
Kemah. In the late 1930s the tiny community
quietly merged as the nearby towns of Bacliff
and Kemah grew. |
