I have a James Columbus Riley b. 1824 in MS who may have been in TX to have written the letter you refer to. I know he and 4 of his13 sibblings came to Texas (and your letter may confirm when).
James was the SON of Edward Miles Riley, who stayed behind in MS. Edward Miles Riley was the son of Edward Riley & Mary Wood. I have a bunch of info on the Rileys in MS and TX.
Your letter may confirm exactly when the Rileys came to TX, so I'd love to hear back from you.
Does the letter sound like one of a (approx)10-year old boy to his Father?
