In January 1861, he left his home in Freeport, IL, went by train to Cairo and on a Mississippi River steamer to New Orleans. Crossing the river, he went by train to Brashear City (Berwick Bay), embarked for Galveston on a ship of the Morgan Line, went into Texas to Houston, and established himself as a merchant at Brenham. Driven out by violence near the end of the war, he went to Matamoras, Mexico, until Lee's surrender when he embarked with his family for New Orleans, returned to Galveston, continued on to Brenham, and finally left Texas.” Zotero Title Five years in Texas; or, What you did not hear during the war from January 1861 to January 1866.
