I made a misstatement in my last message.I said Solomon Strickland, son of Wilson, died at age 105 at the Confederate Home in Austin. I was not looking at my file when I did that - shame on me!
Old Solomon B. Strickland died in Austin, unmarried, with no heirs, at age 107 1/2 years of age.He was born in Montgomery Co. Texas June 5, 1839 to Wilson Strickland and a half breed Indian woman by the name of Wild Flower Ward.They were married on May 7, 1838 in Montgomery County.
Any one who would like a copy of this article on Solomon, including an actual photo of him in old age, can e-mail me with a physical address and I will be happy to make a copy and send to you.
