There is a web site of a diary by William Fairfax Gray: From Virginia to Texas 1835-1837. Mr. Gray stops and stays at the Stagecoach Inn of Jacob Masters in what would become Houston County. http://www.smu.edu/swcenter/FairfaxGray/wg_001.htm is the address of the page from the William Fairfax Gray diary.
