A Phase I Archaeological Survey of a 14.125 Acre Tract: The Arbors of Sam Houston Housing Project in Central Walker County, Texas
Abstract
A Phase Iarcheological assessment of a 14.125 acre tract in central Walker County,Texas was performed in March 1998 by Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) of Bryan, Texas. This is a federal project regulated by the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) agency. The area examined is the site of a proposed apartment complex to be constructed by First Worthing Company of Dallas,Texas. An historic record search by J . K. Wagner & Company, Inc. revealed the presence of a 19th century farmstead that may have occupied part of the northern section of the current project area and two nearby cemeteries . No evidence of these sites was found during the field survey ; and no prehistoric site was found within the boundaries of the current project area. It is recommended that construction be allowed to proceed as planned.
