About Aransas City

Aransas City is a ghost town on the tip of the Live Oak Peninsula in Aransas County, Texas, United States, near present-day Fulton. It served as a port on Aransas Bay at its confluence with Copano Bay during the 1830s and 1840s, but declined following its loss of a Republic of Texas customhouse to the rival port of Lamar.
