Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The indefatigable T. Lindsay Baker has now turned his enormous mental and physical energies to the subject and has brought to view - if not to life -eighty-six Texas ghost towns for the reader's pleasure. Baker lists three criteria for inclusion: tangible remains, public access, and statewide coverage. In each case Baker comments about the town's founding, its former significance, and the reasons for its decline. There are maps and instructions for reaching each site and numerous photographs showing the past and present status of each. The contemporary photos were taken, in most instances, by Baker himself, who proves as adept a photographer as he is researcher and writer....Baker has done his work thoroughly and well, within limits imposed by necessity. He obviously had fun in the process and it shows in his prose."---New Mexico Historical Review

The town was called "La Colorada" by its many Mexican miners who settled there.St. Patrick's Church was established on the ranch and served as the Catholic mission to Atascosa and Frio Counties. With the arrival of the Artesian Belt Railroad, the town of Bexar declined as its population moved two miles east to Somerset. Many of the early families of Atascosa and South Bexar Counties are contained among this book's nearly 10,000 entries, including the Ruiz, Herrera, Navarro, Cotulla, Lytle, Casias, Kinney, Hayden, Barker and Vara. This volume contains the complete records of St. Patrick's Church, plus a modern cemetery survey of its cemetery, an 1876 mission census of Atascosa County and a detailed history of the community.
