Went to Texas from Georgia upon the recommendation of Wert Hudson (very likely Thadeus Worth Hudson) who had migrated there from Georgia. Traveled by train to Texas, liked what he saw and sent for his wife and children. They came and he drove a team of horses and wagon to Morgan to meet his family. Shortly after the family arrived he caught Pneumonia and died. His family returned to Georgia.
