Handbook of Houston features two Falloure entries

The Texas State Historical Association website features two new entries penned by Falloures for the Handbook of Houston (history). One entry is on the City of Bellaire founder William Wright Baldwin. It is based primarily on research conducted by David A. Falloure for his 2012 Eagle Scout project. I am privileged to have worked with him to complete this entry. 

The second entry is about the South End Land Company, the entity responsible for land sales in Bellaire, Tx, as well as what is claimed to be the first master planned community located in Houston, Texas—the Westmoreland Addition in the city's Montrose area.

The Handbook of Houston is an effort by TSHA to highlight Houston area history. The main site can be found at https://tshaonline.org/handbook.
