Marker Text: ​A minister in the Primitive Baptist Church, the Rev. Henry Hurley came to Texas in 1844. His years in the state were spent organizing frontier churches and helping pioneers settle in new communities. He established churches in Hunt, Fannin, and Collin counties before moving to Erath County about 1859. In that year Hurley organized the Bosque Church of the Primitive Baptists and served as its pastor until his death. (1988)
