Thomas B. Huling mainly lived in Lampasas County, maybe had business interests in Jasper (steamboat shipping, etc.).Some of his papers are in the UT Austin archives of Texiana.He moved to TX from Memphis, TN.There's an article about him and his father-in-law Paddy Meagher (who ran the Bell Tavern, there), in the West TN Historical Quarterly, circa 1975. He was an illegitimate son who was acknowledged in court by his father, and he corresponded with his half-brothers David Watts Huling (of PA) and Frederick Watts Huling (of Clarksville TN).His son Thomas B. lived in Lampasas, and son Wm. Neyland moved to El Paso.I'm no kin, but used to think I was so I researched his family.
