Comments
An amateur historian said of Nederland, Lumberton, Port Neches, and Groves, “Had someone come into any of them in the ’30s, I don’t know what would have happened,” but later denied that anything would have happened. He also identified Port Neches as a white flight town.
A retired educator and administrator recalls an all-white cemetery and school district in Port Neches.
