History
Bethany, Texas and Louisiana is a community on the Louisiana and Texas state lines and US Highway 79.
The site was first settled around 1840. In the mid-1960s it supported a church, a community center, and several businesses. In the 1840s the town had a log store, a tavern, a water-powered grain mill, and a tanning In 1860 the post office was relocated to Caddo Parish, Louisiana. The community, which grew up as a stopping point for settlers moving to Texas from the Old South, was originally known as Vernon, but the name was changed to Bethany around 1849 when a post office was established. One of the stores, Lickskillet, bisected by the state line, was built in 1889 by a barkeeper who wanted to take advantage of the differences in state laws; in half of the store drinking was legal, in the other gambling was legal.
