    3. It's been a while since we had this discussion. However, moma was rummaging out in that out building of hers and found a Texas map from 1934. She is an antique junker or a junkie antiquer, maybe even an antiquie junquie.. Anywho, the map showed leaving Waco headed toward Bryan, like now, Hwy. 6. But going opposite of that to Valley Mills and upwards to Dublin and other places, I forget now just where it 'died', was State Hwy. 67. I run just parallel to the Bosque River, which was betw. the hwy. and China Spring. You couldn't tell, but likely on the China Spring Road of that day there must have been a cut off that that linked up with State 67. Running as it did towards Dublin, Eastland, it crossed with U.S. 67. That must have been confusing...both a U.S. and a State hwy numbered 67!. So when they changed things up, it appears, State 67 was 'dropped' down some to the present day location of State 6 that goes out to Speegleville, Valley Mills, etc. They just dropped the 7. There is a hyw. 67 that still runs thru Cleburn. Teresa Parrish G.O.S.P.E.L. - God Offers Sinful People Eternal Life
