    History on a Pinhead

    Lone Oak in Caldwell County is marked today by an inscribed stone in the old Huff Family cemetery. What little information exists on the town is available in the Luling city library. The cemetery, which is somewhat difficult to find during the growing season is best visited in the winter. The larger stones can be seen - about 100 yards from the shoulder of Highway 183.
