Texas Historical Commission 1997-2006 SDE.Historical_Marker vector digital data withheld sde.SDE.Historical_Marker Historical markers have been a part of the Texas landscape since 1936, when the Texas Centennial Commission placed more than 900 markers and monuments around the state to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Texas Revolution and the establishment of the Republic of Texas. The current Official Texas Historical Marker program dates to 1962, and it has been a popular means for interpreting local and state history and encouraging heritage tourism for almost four decades. Probably the most visible program of the Texas Historical Commission, historical markers commemorate diverse topics - from the history and architecture of houses, commercial and public buildings, religious congregations and events that changed the course of local and state history, to individuals who have made lasting contributions to our state, community organizations and businesses, military sites, and many more. Age, significance and architectural requirements govern the eligibility of topics and sites when applying for either a subject marker or a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark marker. This data set was developed for several purposes. Because many of the markers mark the location of historic structures or events, this data can assist planners by alerting them to the presence of these resources within a project area. en 2006 ground condition Complete Continually -106.903580 -93.143920 36.515753 25.764803 379424.340156 1616294.806844 419043.870233 1592913.756767 Historical markers, Local History REQUIRED: Reference to a formally registered thesaurus or a similar authoritative source of theme keywords.

The positions were recorded by hand and later transcribed by data entry personnel, so are also subject to typographical errors. Subsequent positions have been determined from USGS 1:24,000 series maps, so should be accurate to within 10 m. 1:24,000 online Metadata imported. withheld 20061206 Vector Simple FALSE 0 TRUE FALSE HistoricalMarkers_ELP Feature Class 0 OBJECTID_1 OBJECTID_1 OID 4 0 0 Internal feature number.
