Jarvis, Texas

Jarvis is a ghost town in Anderson County, in the U.S. state of Texas.

Although it is considered a ghost town by the Handbook of Texas,[2] the Geographic Names Information System classifies it as an unincorporated community.

Then the 1982 county highway map showed a few scattered houses in Jarvis, while a church named Fields Chapel was located a half mile north of the area along U.S. Highway 84.

The community has never been listed on county highway maps since 1985, but the church was still in operation.

[2] Jarvis stood along the Texas State Railroad at the junction of two county roads and just south of U.S. Highway 84, about 10 mi (16 km) east of Palestine in the southeastern portion of Anderson County.
