WATSON, D. A.
D. A. Watson, M. D. - During the period which marks Dr. Watson's professional career he has met with gratifying success, and though his residence in Schertz dates back but a few years he has won the good will and patronage of the citizens of the place. He was born in Goliad County, Texas, in 1862, his parents being Wiley and Elizabeth (Holt) Watson. The father, who was a native of Tennessee, came to the Lone Star state about 1860, taking up his abode in Goliad County and his death occurred during his son's early childhood.
Dr. Watson was reared on a farm and beginning with his early boyhood days he earned his own living and secured for himself a good education, having graduated at the Texas Christian University at Waco. During the following ten years he taught school in central Texas, principally in Lampasas, Burnet and Williamson counties, where he is well remembered as a most efficient and successful teacher. His professional studies were begun in the medical department of Sewanee University, and he later graduated in the medical department of Fort Worth University in 1902. Between sessions, however, he had practiced medicine in Burnet County, and in 1904 he located at his present home, Schertz, Guadalupe County, a rich and prosperous community, where he is successfully engaged in the practice of medicine and surgery, while in addition he has also established a large general drug store.
Dr. Watson married Miss Eugenia Hughes of Lampasas County, who before her marriage was a teacher in the schools of that county, and they have a little son, Eugene Watson. The Doctor is a member of the Guadalupe County, the State and the American Medical associations. (A Twentieth Century History of Southwest Texas Vol 2, Lewis Publishing Company, 1907
