First Settlers of the Republic of Texas, Volume 2 - Paperback

by Carolyn Ericson (Author)

These documents provide land certificates issued to early Texas citizens residing in the following counties: Jefferson, Liberty, Matagorda, Milam, Montgomery, Nacogdoches, Red River, Refugio, Robertson, Sabine, San Augustine, Shelby, Victoria, and Washington. "The grants included in this book are those that were approved by the traveling Board of Land Commissioners. The persons listed were granted land certificates in their county of original residence. Some had paused only long enough to obtain a land grant." A surname index adds to the value of this work.
