Stoneburg, Texas

Stoneburg sits approximately 40 miles west of Henrietta and offers a tranquil slice of rural life. Its population is small, with fewer than 100 residents, leading to a close-knit community vibe (source: U.S. Census Bureau).

U.S. Route 81, the town’s main thoroughfare, carries a steady stream of visitors and local traffic. Founded in the early 1900s as a railroad town, Stoneburg was once a vibrant place with various businesses, including a hotel and a cotton gin.

Although quieter today, Stoneburg offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of larger cities. Due to its size, more specific historical and event information might be obtained through local county records or anecdotes from long-time residents.
