Stella and I took a drive to downtown Center TX where many of my relatives are from. Most of them are gone now but my Aunt Janie is still there with a few others. We went to visit her for a few days and had a great time visiting her.
Stella found a man selling fruit and vegetables on the square so while she shopped, I took some photos of the old County Courthouse and the grounds. The old courthouse is now a museum but I didn't go inside.
This appeared to be the main entrance with flagpoles, benches and a statue in front.
This is the opposite side, and appeared to me to be the back side of the courthouse.
A side entrance with the year 1885 above the door.
A building with barred windows, that I assumed was the old jail. T on it.here was another building on the square with no markings or signs
The Texas Historical Society seal on the building.
Look very closely at the rings on the concrete curb. I assume that they are the old tie rings for horses around the courthouse.
As I said, we had a very nice visit with Janie and wish that there was more time to visit with all our relatives but we do the best we can.
So long.
