You may notice that for a little southeast Texas town,
Francitas certainly seems to have had a lot of Nebraska news in their local
paper, The Francitas Bee. A good number of people who lived in
Francitas at this time had moved there from Nebraska to pursue farming
interests. Although they were far from their old home, Francitas folks and
those whom they'd left behind appear to have traveled back and forth fairly
regularly, and all this was reported in the little Francitas Bee.
