My sister married into the Roberts family here in East Texas. They were here early as well as my family line, during the 1830's.

There seems to be a pattern of the same family lines crossing MS, AL, LA, TX etc. When I first read old records of how Texas was, not exactly that island of paradise but one of hunger, tragedy, events, battles and death, I am always humbled by these settlers of our early states.
