[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1734381, member: 4674"] People at one time had to utilize what every they could use for fence post. This was before Tee post, treated post and cross ties and upset oil field tubing. I can remember when most corner post here were a mulberry post about 12 to 28 inches in diameter. Line post would be split post made from a post oak tree. There was a man in our area that made the split post for you. If you got over in to the black land area you would see a lot bodark post corner and line . Crooked as all get out. Other areas of Texas would be using cedar post. Understand that a lot of black locust was used in other areas. Most of these wooden post would outlast the treated post we buy now. People had to utilize what ever was growing in the area. The rock post shown was where you had a lot of rock also a lot of fence was made using stacked rock. pm [/QUOTE]
