Was this BS too?

My family settled in what is now Brazos county in 1833, my great great Grandfather Samuel B. "Grandsir" Barnes, and his nine sons and their families came out by wagon from Iredell County N.C. They were sharecroppers that came out west to get some free land of their own, instead of working for a small share of the crop and not owning the land in which they lived on.

They settled out on what is now known as DIlly Shaw Tap Rd on the edge of where the town of Kurten now is. Boonville was the main borough on the Austin Colonies, what is now what we know as BCS. Each Soon received a section of land via Spanish Land Grant for pledging their allegiance to the Republic Militia. Those nine section still makeup the Dairy out on Dilly Shaw Tap Rd that is still in family operation today. My great Grandfather Frederick Whitfield Barnes and his 8 brothers fought in numerous skirmishes. My Great grandfather was wounded in the skirmish on the Sabine, when they were defending the port area at the mouth. Supplies were brought in at the mouth of the Sabine and Buffalo Bayou often and had to be protected. His life was saved from his wound, due to a farrier hammer he carried in his ruck, because he was a blacksmith. The lead ball left the impression of the hammer head in his back, and was still there when he died years later, from old age, he was reportedly 118.

I have about 8 ranches (roughly 8500 acres total) that I do hog management on. Can literally hunt every weekend and not run out of hogs to kill. My boys run dogs and it's like shooting fish in a barrel most of the time.

I live in Montgomery County now. Still have my place on Elmo. The dairy and homestead are still on Dilly Shaw Tap. Uncle and Cousins still operate every day. I moved to cut the downtown commute in half and my Rib works for MISD. My youngest son lives on Elmo. My oldest lives over here near me. I inherited a section from my aunt Helen Jones when she passed. She was one of two Ole Maid aunts I had. Edith and Helen both lived over here on FM 149. I inherited it in '79. Built over here in '85 when the Rib took a job at MISD. Just 40 min from Kyle. So still works well for me and I still have my peace. Never lived in a subdivision in my life and not going to start now.
