Description

Bastrop County had the largest deposit of lignite or brown coal in the state, and it was considered of the highest quality. Bastrop’s underlying soil was often described as fertile and full of enough lignite to supply the state with fuel for the hundreds of years. Mining was the county’s leading industry until the mid 20th century.
