Enos Truss
born Jan 19. 1836
died Jul 28, 1875

Additional Comments:
Husband of Mary Elizabeth Courson. Son of Rev. James Truss and Priscilla
Dulaney, both buried in unmarked graves next to Enos.

Came from Georgia about 1868 with his father by covered wagon. A family story
concerning the"Great Mesquite Train Robbery" of 10 April 1878. The Younger
Brothers, after robbing the west bound Texas and Pacific with Sam Bass, came to
their house and spent the night. Versions of the story conflict in whether they
were prisoners or "guests" in the custom of the day to lodge and feed whomever
came for the night.
