I think a few of my folks followed that TN/MS trail as well in the late 1860's. Seems to have been a pretty popular route to central TX.

I think the whole south was moving in the late 1860s...between the homestead act and people who just wanted to get away and start fresh after the war, there was a lot of coming and going then...
