It is a part of the Palestine, Texas micropolitan area. Although it is considered a ghost town by the Handbook of Texas,[1] the Geographic Names Information System classifies it as an unincorporated community.[2] HistoryAn unsuccessful oil-drilling operation occurred in the area in 1909. In the 1930s, the community had a few homes, two churches, and only one operating business. Then the 1982 county highway map showed a few scattered houses in Jarvis, while a church named Fields Chapel was located a half mile north of the area along U.S. Highway 84. The community has never been listed on county highway maps since 1985, but the church was still in operation.[1] GeographyJarvis stood along the Texas State Railroad at the junction of two county roads and just south of U.S. Highway 84, about {{convert|10|mi|km|abbr=on}} east of Palestine in the southeastern portion of Anderson County.[1] References1. ^1 2 {{Handbook of Texas|id=htj01 |name=Jarvis, TX}} {{Anderson County, Texas}}2. ^1 {{GNIS|1379998}} 2 : Ghost towns in East Texas|Ghost towns in Texas |
