HistoryIt was named for James K. Tomlinson, a native of Georgia who settled in the area with his family in the 1850s.[1][2][3] After emancipation, many of Tomlinson's former slaves took his last name.[2][3] Most of the Tomlinsons have since moved from the area, but some remain, and one notable resident returned – the late Oliver Tomlinson, the father of former National Football League (NFL) player LaDainian Tomlinson.[2][3] The school had fifty-one students in 1933.[1] In the 1940s, there were four businesses, a school, and several houses.[1] By the 1980s, there was only a church and one business.[1] It was also the site of the annual meeting of the Old Settlers and Veterans Association of Falls County.[1] The population was sixty-four in 2000.[1] In 2012, a documentary featuring a white descendant, Chris Tomlinson, and a black descendant, Loreane Tomlinson, was directed by Lisa Kaselak.[4][5] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 Vivian Elizabeth Smyrl, TOMLINSON HILL, TX, The Handbook of Texas Online 2. ^1 2 Lee Jenkins, [https://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/07/sports/football/07tomlinson.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0 Links to Slavery and N.F.L.
