REPUBLIC OF TEXAS BOUNDARY MARKER

By Trey Rusk

While traveling weekend I saw where we were passing an item that most people don't know exists.  

Being a Texas history buff.  I took a detour in deep East Texas down lonely road and found the only remaining Republic of Texas Boundary Marker.  It was placed there in 1840.  

We were deep in the bottoms on the border of Texas and Louisiana near town called Deadwood, Texas.  The only thing that has changed near this location is a thin asphalt road.
