CEDAR LAKE

OR LAGUNA SABINAS. Largest Alkali Lake on Plains; old Indian camp and burial site; birthplace of Quanah Parker.  A skirmish between Indians and United States Cavalry under command of Lieutenant John L. Bullis took place here in October, 1875.

The Cedar Lake/Lagunas Sabinas historical marker is on private land near Seagraves. Whether the assertion is correct that Quanah Parker was born at Cedar Lake, the legend is carved in stone at the site. The marker, erected by the State of Texas, is one of many that commemorate the 1936 Texas Centennial.
