Nussbaumer, Texas. (original) (raw)

History on a Pinhead

This community has little history available other than the connection to Nussbaumer Avenue in Dallas and the namesake of both town and street (Jacob Nussbaumer). Nussbaumer (German for one who cares for nut trees) was a resident of La R�union. The town dates from the 1850s but disappeared from maps in the 1930s.
