EARLE, TEXAS. Earle was on the San Antonio, Uvalde and Gulf Railroad twelve miles south of downtown San Antonio in southern Bexar County. A post office operated at the site from 1887 to 1904. In 1890 Earle had a blacksmith, a general store, a butcher, and a doctor. By the 1930s the site was no longer shown on maps.
