Forest, Texas

Forest is a community located in southeastern Cherokee County Texas, United States. It has an elevation of above sea level.
==History==

In 1847, Wiley Thompson (1799–1866), an Alabama farmer, brought his wife, eight children, and numerous slaves, and settled a tract of land along Larrison Creek. This land became the community of Forest. By the mid 1870s, the Thompson family had opened the first businesses, consisting of a store, saloon, watermill, gristmill, and cotton gin. The first postmaster of Forest was appointed in 1879. The Forest Baptist Church was established in 1888. During the 1920s and '30s the Forest area produced tomatoes, and two tomato packing sheds were built beside the St. Louis Southwestern Railway of Texas.
The post office was transferred to Wells in 1980. As of 2010, Forest is mostly a cattle community, and its only store is in and out of business.
Forest has two cemeteries, Arnold Cemetery and Thompson Cemetery.
