History in
a Pecan Shell
Gardendale
came into being around 1900 when it sprang up between the tracks of
the Texas-Mexican Railroad and Alameda Street. It never had a post
office but did have a school. There was little commerce other than
the establishment of several stores. It would come as a surprise if
present-day residents were told that it was once a separate community. |
