J. S. Caldwell (born December 10, 1837) and his wife,
Janie A. Mott Caldwell (born November 12, 1849), both natives of Kentucky,
came to Texas in 1876 from Warrensburg, Missouri, living for a year in
Grayson County before coming to Palo Pinto County. Here, they
settled 10 miles northeast of Gordon and lived there for 19 years.
The rock foundation of the house they built is still in evidence and a
depression where a cellar was built under the house still remains.
At this location, one of their sons, C. M. was born, May 1, 1880. |
