Another favorite pastime of area residents was to spend time at the ice cream parlor operated by Clark Henry, who owned the F & M Jersey Ranch, a Jersey cattle ranch and dairy. Patrons of his shop, which was located with current boundaries of the City of Jersey Village, ate ice cream as they watched the milking of his cows. Trips to the popular dairy parlor were a tradition in the Cypress-Fairbanks community for many years. They had 5-cent ice cream cones and 10-cent malts. http://www.cfisd.net/aboutour/history.htm#inhabitants H-town I would guess you may have gone swimming in the creek at the park in Tomball. There was a rope hanging from a tree made so that you could swing out and drop off into the water. What fun! And did you ever eat a hamburger made by Mrs. Lucy at Brownies Cafe on 149? Beat Fudruckers by a mile!
