Andice Texas


Andice Texas is a small Town in the far west side of Williamson County - Andice was originally called Stapp and later renamed to Berry's Creek before becoming Andice.

Andrew "Buck" Jackson had a small store near upper Berry's Creek, and became postmaster of Berry's Creek post office, in the fall of 1876. In 1879 Benjamin W. Stapp was appointed the new post master.

Audice Newton was born in 1899 son of of a pastor and applied for a post office, requesting that it be named "Audice." Postal officials misread the name, approved the office as "Andice," Audice was appointed postmaster in 1899.

Andice is located about 18 miles west of Georgetown on highway 2338 and 10 miles south of Florence on highway 970. The site was settled in the early 1850s and developed a cattle industry after the Civil War, when wheat and cotton were significant local crops.
