Add PhotosThe Davidian Church flourished at Mount Carmel, even thriving during the Great Depression due to the excess farmed crops which they sold at a farmers' market open to the public. They also modernized their commune by constructing water and sewage systems, adding electricity and telephone connections. In 1940, the Davidians expanded the compound to 375 acres by buying up property to the west. The population also grew from the original thirty-seven in 1935 to sixty-four residents in 1940.
In 1955 the leader died and his wife decided the commune needed to be moved further from Waco.
All burials were re-interred at Rosemound Cemetery in Waco TX.
