TEXAS HISTORICAL MARKERS

Cameron County Historical Markers

NUMBER OF MARKERS IN COUNTY - 152
Have - 51  Need- 101
Picture
      Named for Capt. Ewen Cameron a member of the Mier expedition. County seat is Brownsville.
      We visited as South Padre part of our honeymoon in 2006 and it was at that really the very start of our very big hobby. We weren't as organized back then and when we visited Brownsville we were not prepared for the one way streets and the heat, so we only captured a fraction of the markers in this county.  The photos are not what I would like them to be either. So a repeat visit is in order I would reallyy love a second chance to explore this vibrant border town. 
     It would be overwhelming at this point to try and talk about the markers in terms of what is missing we have simply not had enough time to to look. A couple of old houses have definately been razed, these are the Armstrong House, Santos Lozano Building and Trevino House, these once had historical markers and for the sake of completeness have been included on this site. Cameron County Historical Commission has also been very active and have been busily dedicating new markers.
