       Austonio Volunteer Fire and Rescue was established in 1981 as a small rural fire department in Austonio , Tx between Crockett and Madisonville, Tx by concerned citizens of the community. The mission was to provide fire protection to the Austonio, Ash, Creek, Pearsons Chapel, Mapleton, Sand Ridge, and Vistula communities. The land was donated by Bob Larson to build the Austonio Fire Department and the Austonio Community Center. I'm a paragraph. Click here to add your own text and edit me.
