    History in a Pecan Shell

    "Leforest received its post office on March 28, 1902, and Arthur E. Tuffing was the only postmaster listed. The name was later changed to Justiceburg, on June 3, 1910. This information comes from Jim Wheat's Post Masters and Post Offices of Texas." - Holly Hilpert, December 05, 2011
