Jim, it is commonly made...no problem; a lot of folks think Ar is for Arizona. I have even had mail sent there that was meant for Arkansas.

Jim, Ak is for Alaska....Arkansas is Ar. (perhaps I wouldn't know this if I hadn't just moved from there last year after having lived there for 27 years). :-) Arizona is Az I think.

You are most welcome. I try to post all the Vicks I find. BTW Hi to everyone. I know this list has been slow. My excuse is that I've been so busy enjoying my grandchildren. I am patiently waiting for my son to bring his scanner over so we can post Vick pictures to the Vick page. Oh, I will be in NC in July. Does anyone have suggestions for where to visit to do research on Nash and Franklin County people? Bettie Moore wrote: > Thanks for posting the will.

You're right! This is in my old stomping grounds. Vick, Texas is on US HWY 87 about 25-30 miles east of San Angelo on the road to Brady, and about 4 miles south of Eola, Texas on Texas Hwy 381, in Concho County.

Cuz'en David, You would loose your bet. I did call. My brother got the name of Gail Stevenson who lives in Eden. He got Gail's name and phone number from one of the present residence of Vick, Tx. (One of the four families who now live there) Gail was raised there. (See previous message, If you missed it, let me know and I will resend it to you.) As your made reference to, I have already been digging. And there is no post office there now. And other post offices that I have checked with, have no information about it. So this is your 2 cents worth. SOoooo grin back at you....

Hallalulah !!! They rose again. They are not dead. We did get some action again finally. Thanks for all the responses. I am now a little more informed about towns names Vick. Still didn't find out which Vick that Vick, Tx was named after but maybe someone will come up with it soon. My brother and his wife stopped by there on the way to our reunion in Lubbock last summer and took a picture of him standing by the sign. There is a store there that still has Vick Store written on the side of it and he also took a picture of that. I don't have a scanner or I would put it on the site for everyone to see. (Of course, you can tell the store has been closed for sometime.) Nice talking to all of you. Norene

Hi Verna and list, Here I am again with another tad-bit; Vicksburg, MI in Kalamazoo County just may be the end of the line for Vick Towns and Cities. Hey Di Ann I may be far from Texas, but I still vote in the Lone Star State. Jim Vick Verona, Italy

DiAnn: I lost the address as to where to join and send dues. Thanks to David for reminding me to ask again. Faye

Volume 6 of the 1996 New Handbook of Texas has the following on Vick, Texas: "Vick is at the junction of Farm Road 381 and U.S. Highway 87, four miles south of Eola in west central Concho County. In 1963 the community had a post office, a motel, and two other businesses. A 1984 map showed a cluster of buildings at the site." Submitter was Mary M. Standifer There is no mention for whom it was named. The 2000-2001 edition of the Texas Almanac shows Vick had a population of 20 in 1998. Jettie Thomas, Arlington, TX

Hi Norene and Di Ann, Just thought I would add a couple names for your list: Arizona has a Vicksburg just off I-10 in Yuma County. And Arkansas has a town named Vick in Brandley County. Jim Vick Verona, Italy

Nice going Norene. I bet for about 15 cents you can call someone in the VICK town that could tell you who it was named for. Or maybe the post office. Hmm I guess everybody has already thought of that stuff all you guys are use to researching and digging so much stuff up. I just paid my dues so I fell like I can add my 2 cents again I was so delinquent I was ashamed to talk... Grin I am just kidding, not about being so far behind just about the talking part.

Good morning Bob, Thanks for letting us know about Vick, LA perhaps we should tell the people they can find it East of Alexandria in Avoyelles County and I would say near Center Point but that is not much, if any bigger than Vick, so should you be looking for Center Point look near Vick. Ha, if that is not confusing enough let me know and I'll try to do better. Jim Vick Verona, Italy

Yes Concho County just a mile or two east of the County line on highway 87 at the intersection with Ranch Road 381. Hope this makes it easier for you to find it on your map.
