EL TORO, TEXAS. El Toro, at the
junction of U. S. Highway 59 and Farm Road 234, four miles east
of Edna in Jackson County, had a post office from 1899 to 1900.
In 1948 the town had four businesses, and there were thirteen
farms in the immediate area. By 1986 the community, located next
to the Miller gas field and the Southern Pacific tracks, had a
grain elevator and one other business. By the late 1980s El Toro
consisted of a smattering of widely dispersed dwellings.
