History on
a Pinhead
Watson, aka Watson's
Store was named for Ed Watson, the man who ran the local store.
A school was opened around 1879 and a second school called Pleasant
Hill, or Redbud School, was built around 1908. It merged with Briggs
schools in the 1930s. The town never developed into a thriving community
and the church above and a cemetery are about all that remain today.
