History on a Pinhead

Established sometime prior to 1900, little is known of Timothy. No population figures are available (for any year) and while it did have two schools and four churches in the 1930s, no one knows for sure if there was ever any sort of business district. The community lost its schools during the great consolidation after WWII and it is now designated a "dispersed rural community."


Photographer's Note:
"Timothy may not be a real town, but it does have a house, church, cemetery and a road named after it: Timothy Road. It is just NE of Chatfield and east of FM 1129, 14 miles NE of Corsicana." - Barclay Gibson
