Health Resort Once Located In Wilson County
Lonnie Tatum recalls Sutherland Springs thriving as a health resort built around artesian springs. The town boasted hotels, baths, a sports arena, shops, a bank, and a railroad spur with excursion trains from San Antonio. Bottled mineral water was shipped north, and local life featured hunting, fishing, and summer entertainment through the early 20th century.
