Texana is a ghost town which was located in Jackson County, Texas, United States, near Edna. The community was one of the earliest Anglo-American settlements in the state. The town flourished as late as 1880, but when the railroad bypassed the town, it rapidly declined. The site was flooded a century later by the Lake Texana reservoir.
