- History
  
  "Attracted by the colonization efforts of Illinois residents Dr. Guy Clifford Powell and the Rev. Francis J. O'Reilly, German-Catholic settlers began moving here in 1907. The pioneers formed the nucleus of the St. Francis Parish. Plans for a town failed, but a strong rural and agricultural community developed with the church as the spiritual, cultural, and social center. Once the site of a railroad depot and a school, the St. Francis Catholic Church community has retained its identity and has continued to reflect its pioneer heritage despite nearby urban growth." - 1983 - Texas Historical Commission
