The Foy Steadman Site is an archeological site in Fisher County, Texas in the vicinity of Noodle, Texas. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.[1]

It is the site of a Folsom culture village and is listed for its potential to yield information.

The site was found by Foy Steadman, a postman, in the 1960s, and was brought to the attention of archeologists. Over 45,000 stone tools and other artifacts have been recovered at the site.[2]
