Austin Colony Pioneers. Including History of Bastrop, Fayette, Grimes, Montgomery and Washington Counties, Texas

This book is a compilation of research done by Worth S. Ray about Washington, Fayette, Bastrop, Montgomery and Grimes Counties , which comprised a large portion of the Austin colonies in Texas. "The most interesting topic sought to be presented is the part played by the colonial pioneers that followed in the wake of the Austins, father and son, and whose humble and unassuming lives were sacrificed in the establishment of new homes for their descendants in what was a wilderness when they came; and whose names, in many instances, are here made accessible for the first time between the covers of a book." - Worth S.Ray
