A.C. Strahle and his son John Jacob Strahle

Two headstones are located in our community with those names listed. A.C. Strahle was reportedly born on October 28, 1836 and died on January 1, 1882 from injuries in an wagon accident. His son, John Jacob was born on March 6, 1876 and died on August 25, 1878 (cause unknown). The headstone memorials are on private property in Lakeway, Texas; however, land granted to A.C. Strahle is located about 5-miles south of the reported burial site. Not really confirmed that the remains are actually beneath the headstones (memorials). Reportedly (local newspaper-Austin-Statesman), the murder of a local postmaster a few years later occurred due to the death of A.C. in the wagon accident. Much of this folklore comes from local family stories passed down over the years. Most curious is that A.C. is buried so far from the land he owned (about 160 acres).
