The VARNER HOGG PLANTATION

JULY 15, 2004

The Varner-Hogg Plantation Manor  is located on an 1824 Mexican Land Grant issued to Martin Varner, who was one of Stephen F. Austin's "Old Three Hundred." It is in West Columbia, Texas.

This is the intrepid group of summer school students who participated.
Entrance to the Big House An old oil well
The patient and informative guide It's not a volcano...
How it used to be. . . On the veranda
Scrub a dub dub Mrs. Salazar has the technique right!
Why is she having fun doing the work? Hanging in there
Grinding the grain Watch carefully...
And some time to play, also!
