Brazoria County Historical Markers

NUMBER OF MARKER IN COUNTY - 142

Have - 20 Need- 122

        Named for the Brazos River. County seat is Angleton. 
​        We have only briefly visited Brazoria County on our way home from Houston. Pearland, Alvin and some of West Columbia is all we have covered thus far, a meer 14 percent of the county total number of markers. I look forward to this one because it is a coastal county and I love the ocean. There are a lot of old markers in this county and that always poses challenges, so we will see.
