Marker Erected By: State Historical Survey Committee; Men's Garden Club of America.
Date Marker Erected: Recorded Texas Historical Landmark - 1967.
County of Marker: Carson County.
Location of Marker: US-60, roadside turnout, 4½ miles SW of Panhandle.
Pay close attention, if you are coming from the east you cannot see this site. It is on the south side of the east bound lanes in a depressed area. There is ample parking, and a good roadside turnout, so driving right up to it is fine. East bound traffic can see the site just fine.

This is one of three markers from different time, all attached together because they all deal with this little tree.

The other two are here: WM7C8W and here: WM7C92

Marker Number: 38
