Brooks County Historical Markers
NUMBER OF MARKERS IN COUNTY - 11
Have - 10 Need - 1
29th January, 2019 - I have yet to find any prove of the existence of the markers for Town of Flowella and Site of Los Olmos, that doesn't mean they are not there but it is unusual not to be able to find a picture of them.
Brooks County is named for James A. Brooks who was the first county judge and a state legislator. The county seat is Falfurrias.
As the picture to the left depicts, Brooks County is rural. To my eye Falfurrias is a neat and tidy town and doesn't show the decay a lot of south Texas seem to be suffering from. The Courthouse was maintained and the town appearred to be alive.
As far as the markers go we captured all but the Town of Flowella which we could not locate, I've reached out to Brooks County Historical Commission to see if this marker still exists,
