Kentucky Colonization in Texas

In this publication which is reprinted from The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society the author has furnished a history of the Peters Colony as well as a list of the colonists themselves which comprises the final half of the book. In this list the genealogist is given full scope for his researches as each of the 2000 settlers is positively identified with regard to the following information: name marital status occupation age year of migration to Texas county of settlement state of birth and state from which he migrated. Professor Connor extracted his information from original sources in the general land office records of the Peters Colony and the 1850 census of Texas.
