Located on the Old San Antonio Road,
known as "El Camino Real de los Tejas" that early settlers
traveled to the beautiful Piney Woods of East Texas. San
Augustine is the home of the first university, churches of
all denominations, and the first American settlement in
Texas. The abundant history in our area is evident in over
50 recorded Texas Historical Landmark homes and sites. We
hope you will find this site helpful in your search for your
ancestors.
My name is Suzanne Sowell. I have lived in San Augustine
most of my life and have deep roots here. Genealogy is a
great joy for me and I enjoy sharing with others. I hope to
make our rich history more accessible through this site.
Please share any genealogical information by e-mailing
Suzanne Sowell.
