Residence : 1866
Pottsboro, Grayson Co., Texas
Age 38
Moved from Missouri to area northwest of
Pottsboro ~ Martin Springs, Grayson Co., Texas
in a covered wagon.
After the War, Robert
went to Ellis County, Texas where some old
friends and family from northwest Missouri had
settled earlier when he and recently widowed
Nancy Graham Branum agreed to marry and
return to Missouri, where they remain a short
time and returned to Texas, where they settled
on the old homestead, just west of Pottsboro.
Nancy was the mother of eleven children, eight
of whom survived her. When she and her
husband located and settled on their land,
sometime in 1854, they did not have many
neighbors. There was a settlement at
Martin Springs and a ranch home where
Pottsboro now stands, and perhaps a half dozen
pioneer log cabins scattered around, within a
radius of six or seven miles.
