Negative Space: Texas history
- Historical Markers of Texas State Highway 29
-
Between U.S. 183 and Interstate 10 on Texas State Highway 29 and U.S. Route 377 there are five historical markers. There are also wonderful kolaches and some decent antiquing.
- Liberty Hill Cemetery
-
The Liberty Hill Cemetery is famous more for its age—dating back to 1852, before it was even an official cemetery—than for its residents. The people buried here tell a story of the old west, however, that is as interesting as any Louis L’Amour novel.
- Texas History on the Road
-
There is a lot of history in Texas. It’s almost like it was its own country!
