An Archaeological Survey for the Proposed Old Orchard Park Improvement Project in Angelina County, Texas
Abstract
On May 28, 2008, Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) performed a cultural resources survey at the site of the 50-acre Old Orchard Park in central Angelina County for the City of Diboll under antiquities permit 4931. The project area was investigated by backhoe trenching. Four backhoe trenches revealed a sandy loam that varied in depth from 30 cm to 70 cm. Below this was sandy clay and clay that became wetter as the trenches approached the water table, especially in the two trenches nearest the creek. No archaeological sites were found, no artifacts were collected, and it is recommended that construction be allowed to proceed as planned. Copies of the final report are on file at the Texas Historical Commission (THC), Texas Archeological Research Laboratory (TARL), BVRA, and the City of Diboll.
