Aransas Pass Progress
About the Collection
The Aransas Pass Progress has served as the leading hometown news source for the "The Harbor City" and the surrounding area for 100 years. Founded by a young printing equipment salesman named W.H. Vernor, the newspaper was initially backed by a real estate firm working to promote a new town along the shores of Redfish Bay. The Progress has operated in the same location since the spring of 1946 when the newspaper moved into a new office on South Houston Street in Aransas Pass.
Addition of the Aransas Pass Progress to The Portal to Texas History was made possible through the support of a Tocker Foundation grant to the Ed & Hazel Richmond Public Library.
