Austonio Baptist Church


Austonio is an unincorporated community, formerly a city,[citation needed] in Houston County, Texas, USA.[1]


The community, originally named Pearville, was established before 1900. In 1930 the community sponsored a contest, asking participants to select a new name for the community. Ruth Tucker submitted the name "Austonio", a combination of Austin and San Antonio; the name was chosen as the community's new name. Austonio has an estimated population of about 40.[1]
