Amy (Delta County, TX)

Welcome to Amy ...

Although we found mention of Amy during our research, we have little information about it.<1> Given the context of how Amy was mentioned, we believe that it was a community rather than a locale or some type of landmark. We have done a cursory search and if it was a community, we haven't been able to find any evidence that it still exists..

While we are confident that Amy was located in Delta County, we don't know its actual location within the county.

We've added Amy to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Amy - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Amy, please Contact Us.

Time Zone: The area where we believe that Amy might be (or was) located is in the Central Time Zone (CST/CDT) and observes daylight saving time

We believe that Amy would be found within the (903) and (430)<2> area codes.

Adding Amy to Our Gazetteer ...

As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future.

We originally found mention of Amy in the FIPS-55 file. For more information, see the Referenced FIPS Codes section on our Miscellaneous Page.

In addition, we also found mention of Amy elsewhere: The earliest map where we found it was on a Rand McNally Map of Texas (1911).

Footnotes ...

<1>

If we encounter the name of what might be a community, our methodology is to add that name to our Gazetteer. For example, we might find a sentence like "He went south past Amy and then turned west". While Amy could be some kind of landmark, we think that it's more likely to be a community. We've added Amy as a placeholder with the hope that we'll be able to add more information in the future.

Just as a reminder: Our definition of a community is rather broad and includes those places (or areas) where several families lived and had a name which identified that place. For example, you might hear somebody say that they are going over to Bird Creek to see Pete ... Bird Creek is just a gas station and a couple of homes at the crossroads. While it might not be on the map, everybody in the area knows it by that name.

Places of interest include buildings at a crossroad, several families clustered in a hollow or maybe the location of a way station. It also includes places like mines, lumber camps, ferry crossings, etc. The community might still exist, is now gone or only existed for just a short period of time.

Also keep in mind that Amy could have been on the original document by mistake, misspelled, the original/alternate name of a community that we've listed elsewhere or was placed in the wrong county. Sometimes a post office or train station would have a different name than the community where it's located, so two names might be referring to the same community - we're working to straighten it all out.
