Easley Chapel, TX

Type: General Entry

Published: January 1, 1995

Easley Chapel, a farming community on State Highway 21 two miles northeast of Weches in extreme northeastern Houston County, grew up around a church by that name built before 1900. In the mid-1930s the community had a church, a cemetery, and a number of houses. After World War II most of its residents moved away, and by the mid-1960s only a cemetery and a few widely scattered houses remained in the area. In the early 1990s Easley Chapel was a dispersed rural community.
