Burton Mayor’s Message In the rolling hills of western Washington County is our charming little town of 300+/- friendly, hospitable citizens. The town of Burton was established in 1870 by German immigrant families on land sold by John M. Burton, who came to Texas in the 1820’s from Georgia. The Burton Post Office opened on September 3, 1870 and the Burton ISD was formed in 1878. The formation of the Burton Volunteer Fire Department in 1897 added to the security of the tightly knit Mayor community. In 1972, the town incorporated; with the City of Burton Municipal Court and Police Department being David Zajicek formed and established on January 25, 1973. Burton Mayor Downtown Burton is listed as a "Commercial Historic District" in the National Register. Burton is also one of the towns on the Texas Historical Commission's "Texas Independence Trail" and home to “The Official Cotton Gin Museum of Texas.” The key exhibit of the museum is the cotton gin that was built in 1914 and the 1925 Bessemer Type IV diesel oil engine. The restored 16-ton “Lady B” is the largest internal combustion engine of its vintage still operating in America! Each year the gin gets fired up and bales cotton during the annual Cotton Gin Festival in April. For more information go to www.cottonginmuseum.org. Information about eating, shopping and happenings in and around Burton can be found at the Burton Chamber of Commerce website, www.burtontexas.org, and the Burton Heritage Society website, www.burtonheritagesociety.org. Our most noted events are Texas Ranger Day, Big Star Texas Night, the Cotton Gin Festival, and Spring & Fall Antique Shows. I encourage you to come and enjoy the sights and celebrations of our little city and its traditions.

46 Washington County Magazine 2019 Edition www.BrenhamTexas.com Washington County Life Brief History Why is Washington County known as the Birthplace of Texas? It was on March 2, 1836, that a delegation of 59 men gathered at Washington-on-the-Brazos to determine what course of action to take to protect themselves from the tyrannical Mexican government that was ruling the land. A few days later, news of the massacre at the Alamo reached the men in Washington. Under Sam Houston’s direction, the delegates carried out their mission to draft a Declaration of Independence and establish a constitution for a new nation. They declared Texas a “FREE, SOVEREIGN, and INDEPENDENT REPUBLIC.” Etched in the history books forever is Washington County, the “Birthplace of Texas.” Brenham is the county seat for this historic and scenic region. The area was opened to settlement in 1821 under the Spanish and was one of the earliest settled areas in Texas. The county was formally organized in 1837 in the heart of Stephen F. Austin’s original colony. Pioneers from all parts of the United States and immigrants from western Europe flocked to Austin’s colony for its liberal land grants.

Chappell Hill was founded in 1847 by Mary Hargrove Haller, granddaughter of Robert Wooding Chappell, for whom she named the town. Her husband, Jacob, was the town’s first postmaster. The tiny town prides itself on having established two colleges, Chappell Hill Female College and Soule University, along with five churches. Soule University later became part of what is now Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas. Chappell Hill prospered in the early days and the town became a popular stagecoach stop for travelers between Houston, Austin and Waco. The elegant Stagecoach Inn still sets on the corner of Main and Chestnut Streets, its Greek Revival-style architecture featuring highly detailed cornices with downspouts that bear the Lone Star and the 1851 date they were added. The Civil War and Reconstruction era brought violent changes to Chappell Hill. The yellow fever epidemic of 1867 also took a toll, nearly wiping out the community. Nevertheless, the town survived Independence is also home to the original site of Baylor University, all of this and entered a new era of growth and prosperity while founded in 1846.

Coles, who came to Texas in 1821 as one of Austin’s 300 colonists. In 1836 the community was renamed Independence in honor of Texas’ declaration of freedom from Mexico. In 1839, a Baptist church was established and its congregation still meets today. The Independence Baptist Church is now the oldest continuously operating Baptist church in the state. Sam Houston attended church and was baptized there, and legend has it that following his baptism in the creek, Houston said, “I pity the fish downstream.” Houston’s mother-in-law was so thrilled with his transformation that she had a large iron bell created and presented it to the church with gratitude. The Texas Baptist Historical Center-Museum features this bell, along with many other early Texas history exhibits.

86 Washington County Magazine 2019 Edition www.BrenhamTexas.com YOUR ItShop benefits with every pride business in and everyhometown. resident.

Many people do not realize the importance of keeping their hard-earned dollars in their own community. They don’t realize that by spending dollars outside of Washington County for goods and services that can be purchased here, they are supporting other communities’ police and fire departments, parks and recreation facilities, businesses, workforce, etc.

By shopping local, you get more knowledgeable and friendlier customer service. You get to know your local merchants, and they get to know YOU! Local businesses give better support to community groups. Non-profits and charity groups receive an average of 350% more donations from local businesses than they do from non-locally owned businesses.

Spending $100 at a local independent business creates a ripple effect of $68 in additional local economic activity. Shopping locally saves your gas and your time! Plus, local businesses preserve and enhance the uniqueness of the community. This makes it special for you and attractive for others to spend time and money here, generating additional economic opportunities for everyone.
