History
on a Pinhead
The community once had its own post office from
1898 to 1921, but prior to that, information is scant. The Handbook of Texas
only mentions “twenty-odd farms” in the area. Hickston remains on the detailed
TxDoT Gonzales County map.
Mr. Gibson’s photographs show the extent of
the community today.
