Black Pflugerville Adopted the Historic Colored Addition Cemetery in 2016.
PFLUGERVILLE COLORED ADDITION. The Pflugerville Colored Addition is located in Travis County on Farm Road 1825 in west Pflugerville. In 1910 black workers in Travis County who worked in the Pflugerville cotton industry and ice factory were not allowed to move into the town. La Rue Norton, a farmer who owned 1,200 acres of land west of Pflugerville, set off about an acre and sold lots to the workers at fifty dollars each. In April 1910 the settlement was placed in the county records as Pflugerville's Colored Addition. St. Mary's cemetery, located west of St. Mary's Church, was started in the 1920s for the burial of African and Mexican Americans.
Black Pflugerville Adopted the Historic Colored Addition Cemetery in 2016 and maintenance is done by community volunteers monthly.
