In 1916 my grandparents traveled from Choccolocca Alabama to near Grandview TX (Watts Chapel) via covered wagon but they put at least one large trunk containing clothing on the train at Choccolocca (Calhoun County Alabama) for the trip to Johnson County, TX. Cleburne TX is where I am thinking the trunk was sent to be picked up and am wondering if Mr. Wyly or anyone might be able to verify that Cleburne was the nearest train stop to Grandview in 1916. (I am from this area). My grand parents were very poor and left AL hoping to better themselves in TX and I know it must have been very difficult to get the money for this trip. Traveling in a covered wagon with children 4 and 2, and my grandmother six months pregnant - I can't even imagine how hard this must have been in the heat of a TX summer. Also, Mr. Wyly have you any idea of the cost of shipping a clothing trunk via train in that time period? Thanks and I enjoy all your posts - fascinating! Jeri Coppock Maserang
