History
in a Pecan Shell
Originally named Boyd's Cove, for local resident James Boyd, the town
dates from the 1850s. The name Bee Hive was submitted to postal authorities
who changed it to Bee House when the post office was granted.
The population of Bee House peaked at 150 in the mid-1890s. The Bee
House school had seventy-eight students being taught by two teachers
in 1904. |
