PFLUGERVILLE, TEXAS History
Located about fifteen miles north of the
Colorado River on the eastern edge of the blackland
prairies, Pflugerville was founded in 1860 when William
Bohls established a general store and post office in his
residence, and named the town in honor of Henry Pfluger.
Pfluger first arrived in the area in 1849, leaving his
German homeland to escape the Prussian War. He first
purchased 160 acres of land two miles east of Austin from
John Liese, a brother-in-law who had immigrated before him.
In 1853, Henry Pfluger exchanged the land for a larger farm
about five miles east of present day Pflugerville. There,
the family lived in a five-room log cabin and raised corn,
wheat, rye, beans, sweet potatoes, and sugar cane. They also
raised cattle, which Henry and his sons drove to market on
the Chisholm Trail.
Two additional buildings and a blacksmith shop were added
later, but it was not until the Missouri-Kansas-Texas
railroad arrived in 1904 that the town experienced a period
of rapid growth. Otto Pfluger, one of Henry Pfluger’s eight
sons, built the first gin in 1904, and a second gin was
erected in 1909. The town’s prosperity attracted additional
business concerns. Otto Pfluger added an ice factory next to
his gin, and in 1913, H.H. Pfluger built the Sky Dome
Theater, which showed motion pictures to the accompaniment
of a player piano, on Friday and Saturday nights. The
theater closed in 1928. A weekly newspaper, The Press, was
published in Pflugerville from 1907 to 1942.
Residents established a school in 1872 and a Lutheran church
in 1875. By the mid-1890's, Pflugerville had a population of
250, and within ten years of the arrival of the railroad,
the population had doubled to 500 residents. The Depression
halted the community’s growth as citizens moved to larger
cities to find work. The population continued to decline
after World War II, and by 1949, the number of residents in
Pflugerville had fallen to 380.
Pflugerville began to grow slowly again in the 1960’s
and was incorporated in 1965. The population rose to 452 by
1968 and to 662 by 1980. The Pflugerville Pflag began
publication in 1980. From 1980 through 1988, new development
in Pflugerville made it the fastest growing community in the
state. After a slight slowdown during the recession of the
late 1980’s, the tremendous growth resumed again during the
1990’s, as the population nearly quadrupled in size from
4,444 residents in 1990 to 16,335 in 2000.
PFLUGERVILLE’S COLORED ADDITION
In 1910, black workers who worked in the
Pflugerville cotton industry and ice factory were not
allowed to move into the town. La Rue Noton, a farmer who
owned 1,200 acres of land west of Pflugerville, set aside 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. The original settlers of
the Colored Addition were Pete McDade, George Caldwell, Will
Smith, Ned Tyson, Willie Allen, and their families.
The community built St. Mary's Baptist Church in 1910 and
St. Matthew's Missionary Church in 1920. St. Mary's cemetery
was started in the 1920’s for the burial of African and
Mexican Americans. The community built an elementary school
in 1928, which moved to Pflugerville when the school
district desegregated in 1965. In 1959, St. Mary's Church
was rebuilt on Farm Road 1825, and in 1973, St. Matthew’s
Missionary Church closed.
In 1978, Travis County Commissioners, disturbed that the
community's official name continued to reflect its origin
under legal segregation, attempted to rename the Addition to
Western Addition. However, opposition from the residents
kept the County from changing the name.
