Honey Island, Texas

Honey Island is an unincorporated community in Hardin County, Texas, United States.

Though not usually an island, it is located on elevated land between the Cypress and Flat Cypress creeks, which rise in heavy rain, thereby temporarily isolating the area as an island.

[2] During the time of the Civil War, this site was known to attract Jayhawkers due to the area's numerous beehives.

This activity would eventually lead to the Kaiser Burnout by the Confederates in the nearby cane fields.

[4] In 1901 the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway reached the site, and by 1907 a post office was established.
