History on
a Pinhead
Other than the
name appearing on maps in 1920
and 1940, nothing is known of
Edruvera. It is possible there are deeds or oil leases in Ozona
bearing the name, but there is no history currently available of the
place nor any reference to the odd name.
Several places in Texas have been made by combining the first and
last names of an individual (Tomball
in Harris County
and Edcouch in
Hidago County)
but guessing there was a founder or a landowner named Ed Ruvera is
speculation unless proof comes to light. |
