History
on a Pinhead
Although a post office was granted to this tiny community as early as 1887,
there were only ten reported residents in the 1890s.
There was a store
and blacksmith, but Goodman’s proximity to Bastrop
dampened chances of growth. The post office closed by 1914 and thereafter Goodman
melted into oblivion. |
