History of East Bernard Old Town and Its People
A retrospective narrative recounts East Bernard in Wharton County, detailing early settlers, river geography, and the evolution from a sparsely built community to a bustling town. It covers housing, farms, transportation via a Southern Pacific rail line, devastations from fires, growth of stores and churches, and social changes across generations. It emphasizes aging traditions, shifts from horse and buggy to automobiles, and changing social norms in marriage and daily life.
