Great posting about some history of the Huntsville area and Mr. Hamburger. It’s after 2am and that menu listing just caused me to salivate! I really miss the flame broiled burgers and grilled, buttered buns that used to be common.
Sam Houston was President of the Republic of Texas.
Aside... Back in ‘50s the family went to Galveston every year for two weeks. We usually stopped at the Huntsville State Park for a break. One year, we filled a grocery sack with some of the Spanish moss from there. .....We lived on a corner and had about a dozen mimosa trees along the side street. We hung pieces of the moss in every tree. It was STILL living in those trees 20 years later.
I enjoy your postings.

You are a real “Texican”. I enjoyed reading your page. Tyler is a lovely town. In my early life, I worked in Tyler. Always had to drive slowly during rain on the red brick streets in downtown. They were slick when wet.
