'''Jollyville''' is a neighborhood in the northern part of [[Austin, Texas]],  United States. In 2010 it was a [[census-designated place]] (CDP) in [[Travis County, Texas|Travis]] and [[Williamson County, Texas|Williamson]] counties, but has since been annexed by Austin.{{cn|date=August 2024}} The population of the CDP was 16,151 at the [[2010 United States Census|2010 census]].

==History==
[[File:Jolly Cemetary in Williamson, County, Texas.jpg|thumb|Jolly Cemetery in Williamson County, Texas]]

The area was first settled by Henry Rhodes after obtaining a [[land grant]] in 1841 of about {{convert|1000|acre|km2|0}} from the [[Republic of Texas]]. The name, however, comes from a later settler, Confederate general John G. (possibly Grey, but no proof for middle name exist) Jolly, who purchased {{convert|160|acre|km2}} in 1866. John and his wife, Nancy Isabell (Guill) Jolly, operated a blacksmith shop and store. The Jollys donated land for a school and the cemetery in which they were eventually buried.
Jollyville remained lightly settled for decades; only twenty families lived in the area in 1960. Eventually, the growth of nearby Austin led to the development of Jollyville as a [[suburban]] community.

==Geography==

According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the CDP has a total area of {{convert|5.9|sqmi|km2|0|abbr=on}}, all  land.
