Note the threaded tang. That is a fairly recent development in sword manufacturing and suggests a ceremonial sword of the last century or so. It could be older, possibly.

Scabbard rings might be welded. That suggests 20th century manufacturing

The acreage is in Williamsin County on Brushy Creek.

The original section of land was given by the government to a soldier who fought in the Texas-Mexican war. We only have 110 acres of that original section.

This is unlikely to be useful toward finding the origin of the sword. A large number of original grantees (the guy who got the certificate and therefore the survey is named for) are not the patentees (the first private owner of the property).

In Williamson County the GLO lists 93 bounty grants with only 23 being patented to the grantee. So maybe 73 never saw the property to which their name has been ascribed.

Good eye, I didn't even notice that.

Agree that it is a modern ceremonial sword of some sort based on that.
