Corn Hill


Corn Hill, Texas -

The late town of Corn Hill laid two miles south of Jarrell in north central Williamson County. The town was settled by Judge John E. King around 1855 and stared out as a stage stop and a post office was established in 1855.  The Bartlett and Western Railway would bypass Corn Hill in 1909 so a new town, Jarrell, was started on the proposed new line and the many people and buildings where moved to Jarrell. Corn Hill made a living with it's Cotton ginning because it had a large steam gin.
