LILY WHITE, TEXAS

Harris County, Texas Gulf Coast

Book Hotel Here › Houston Hotels
Not much is known about this Afro-American community that was eventually absorbed by Houston.

Known to have been alongside the rails of the Katy railroad, the area now falls inside the city limits of Hedwig Village (pop 2,334).

Hedwig Village is between Bingle and Gessner just south of I-10 (aka the Katy Freeway).

The Handbook of Texas uses the Hedwig Village Gazette as their source, while we use the Handbook as ours.

Lily White, Texas Forum

Anyone wishing to share information, stories, or memories of Lily White (or the location of the Lily White cemetery), please contact us.
