| History
in a Pecan Shell The
community which was once known as Honey Bend now exists only as a cemetery.
The town was settled by the 1880s and the name comes from a prominent twist in
the Brazos River - an Oxbow lake in-the-making.
The community at its
peak was hardly more than a school and church, but they did manage to form a cemetery
association in 1932 to maintain the original graveyard.
James James,
sometimes known as "Double Jimmy" was a local celebrity and 1812 War Veteran who
is interred in the Gooseneck Cemetery. | |
