    TEXANA , TEXAS
    is NOW an
    under water
    ghost town
    which was located in Jackson County near Edna. The community was one of the earliest Anglo-American settlements in the state. The town flourished as late as 1880, but when the railroad bypassed the town, it rapidly declined. The remains now lie
    under the Lake Texana reservoir.
    THAT town didn't survive, but this piece of paper did and it NEVER got wet!
