Freestone County, Texas Tax Assessments/Tax Lists/Land Records/Property Taxes of 1854 1854 Tax List of Freestone County, Texas [signed off on 1 Jun 1854] [This listing will be *FCT54* for my indexes. Images are available at https://www.familysearch.org under records under "Texas, County Tax Rolls, 1837-1910"] [ Notes about the Tax Collector: John Whitt Content Notes: Most people do not formally own land or town lots. Many of the ranches are listed on Tawacana (a.k.a. Tehuacana creek). The Trinity river is located on the east side. Even by 1854 as early as this is, very few land owners are the original grantees. The exceptions that are the original grantees typically own a VERY large parcel of land. I suggest reading about Preemption of 320 acres as that is still in effect in 1854. Handwriting Notes: John Whitt does weird abbreviations such as "Jo." instead of "Jos." for Joseph. John Whitt's "Alex." really looks like "Alan". Tax Assessment Notes: Think of the tax assessment as an annual census. The tax list is a great tool for finding deceased individuals from 1851-1889 (until our oldest existing Freestone County newspapers become plentiful enough to track things). Index Number Notes: Index numbers were added ahead of people's entries and "for" entries to track position in document. The focus was on tracking of people skipping partnerships. My document references are *FCT54* 90. For overlooked entries feel free to add 0.5 to the end (like 90.5). SPECIAL ABBREVIATIONS: "1st" = first appearance in tax rolls ABBREVIATIONS: "Do." or tick marks = Ditto [I will usually lowercase the abbreviation to make it stand out more] "agt. for" = agent for "guar. for" = guardian for (so X is child that person has guardianship over) "admin. of"/"executor"/"exr" = executor of estate of person X (so X has recently died) "adminix."/"executrix" = usually female executor of estate (usually the wife) "Grantee" = who first started as the land owner "cont." = continued [on "the next" or "from the prior" page] "dec." or "dec'd." = deceased "heirs" = people that benefit from the estate (usually based on will, but could be probated) "senr" = senior "junr" = junior CREEK NOTES: The waters tell where the parcel is. The Trinity River runs the length of Freestone County in the east. The Upper Keechi creek runs from the SE corner of the county north and west to Fairfield, TX. Tehuacana Creek runs the length of the northern part of the county. I think this tax assessor spells it "Tawacana" or "Cana". Grindstone creek runs south from Tehuacana down to modern Teague, TX area. Cedar Creek is a short creek that runs from Tehuacana in the north down to near Fairfield, TX. The Cottonwood creek is one of Cedar creek's branches. Richland Creek is in the extreme NE corner of the county. Lambs creek is a short creek in extreme SW corner of the county. PARCEL NOTES: "F.P. Cabler" grantee is for Francis P. Cabler's (d 21 January 1845) parcel in NW part of Freestone Co., TX. or his second parcel located SW of Fairfield, TX. "Jesse Korn" grantee is for Jesse Korn's parcel to the east of Fairfield. "Reddin Gainer" grantee parcels are usually spelled "Reden Gainer" by the tax assessor. His parcel contains the future location of Fairfield, TX. "Isaac Caradine" grantee parcels are located SW of Fairfield, TX. The "James James" grantee parcel is found east of Stewards Mill, TX. The "Robert B. Longbotham" grantee parcel is the NW corner of the county where modern Wortham, TX. The "G. B. Brewer" parcel is the location of Teague, TX. The "Gertrudez Luna" parcel is the location of the community of Luna, TX. The "Durham Avant" parcel is the location of the community of Avant, TX.] ---------------------------------------------- [handwritten at top:] Records by Comptroller, June 1st 1854 [Side:] A [this title is pre-printed and has blanks in certain spots:] ASSESSMENT Made in the Year 1854 by J.
