Posted on: San Saba Co., TX Queries<br> with Automated Mailing List Posting Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Tx/SanSaba/631 Surname: Dean, Brandon, Walker, Dunlap ------------------------- In the late 1877 or early 1878, Bailey Dean, wife Matilda & their youngest son Elisha Dean moved from Burleson county, Texas to San Saba Couty Texas. They lived with thier son, John Dean and his family(Wife, Lou & sons Joseph & Lee). Near the Baby Head and Cherokee township. Other children of Bailey and Matilda Dean that moved to this area about the same time from Burleson County are: Abner Dean, Henry Dean Olive(Dean)Dunlap (husband Archibald) and Mahulda (Dean) Walker (husband William) and their families. In the years of 1878 through 1887 San Saba county Tax rolls. I didn't find Bailey Dean having any property to pay taxes on and Mahulda, John nor Henry showed any acres owned, but they did show having some taxable things. Abner and Olive families owned some land. Abner Dean was later shown in Llano County, Texas where he lived until his death. John and Henry Dean were not listed in San Saba tax rolls after 1887. But one of Henry's daughters is said to have been born in San Saba county, July 31, 1889. What was happening in their lives during the years of 1877 to November 1889 is a mystery to me. But I do know that Lou (Brandon)Dean wife of John Dean was in Indian Territory by November 30, 1889, because that is when their child Effie was born. If they had any knowledge of the Mob I do not know. The story was not handed down well over the years only that there was trouble so they left Texas. If you do come across any of their names please let me know. The stories are very interesting. Thank you for sharing them.
