I have a gggrandpa named James Hobbs who came into Hunt Co. Tx with the Mercer Colony around 1849 probably from Missouri. His daughter was named Matilda Hobbs and she married Abraham Watson in Polk Co., Mo in 1840 and they also came.They later went to Ark and their son came back and settled in Vashti Tx which is just a few miles from Bowie.I have been looking for his family. He died in 1850 at the age of 75 according to the mortality schedule on the internet.
