This suburb of the city of Houston was, according to a newspaper article laid into the abstract, "suitable for homes for the thousands who would some day find employment at the port of Houston, and in the new work of railroads which would seek a deep water outlet." The article further claims that "East Houston is the coming railroad center of the greatest railroad city in the Southwest [.] Already construction work has started on the Houston, Sabine and Red River Railway from deep water on the bayou at Long Reach to the junction with the Brownsville Road" First developed ca. 1907, building lots in Quimby's Addition were located in the southwest corner of the J.L. Stanley survey. Containing a wealth of information, the abstract documents the assembly of smaller tracts which had been subdivided from the original 1840s Republic of Texas land grants. It includes plat maps of Quimby's Addition and traces land titles, reprinting details abstracted from nineteenth century Texas deeds and legal documents. A supplemental abstract includes a hand-drawn plat map showing 14 blocks of C.L. Sumbardo's Subdivision within Quimby's Addition.
