William Gann (my ggg granfather) and his family joined a wagon train from Tennessee to Texas in 1836. This wagon train was led by Davy Crockett. After reaching Texas, Davy Crockett left the train headed for San Antonio and William led the train to Nacogdoches, arriving March 1, 1836. William was accompanied by his brother, Solomon, and sister Mary Ann (Polly) Gann, (Mrs. George Massingill) with their families. William Gann lost his right arm in the battle of Erie in 1814. William and his family settled in an area that later became Angelina Co., TX and his son, John Delaney Gann, (my gg grandfather) was elected as the first Clerk of Court in the newly formed county in 1846.
