| History
in a Pecan Shell
Once the Headquarters of the Leaday Ranch,
Voss was named after the ranch's manager who filled out the form to request a
post office.
The same year (1904) that Fisk was coming
into existence, Voss had two hotels, three stores besides the new Post Office.
You could also get a haircut and have your horse shod.
Today Voss has
a sign announcing itself as Bob Turner's hometown and indeed, when he's not in
Austin, he's here.
The flag is flown and a restored Red and White Grocery
Store gleams with fresh paint. This proves that no town is too small to preserve
it's past or at least some part of it. |
