Nov 1882 Browns Creek Cemetery-When the U.S. Government bought the land for Camp Hood (now Ft. Hood) in 1942 they removed the remains from the cemeteries in the impact area. Thomas Benton's remains were moved the Restland Cemetery-Gatesville, Coryell County, Texas

Some family histories indicate POB as North Carolina

Thomas Benton recorded a Patent on 40 acres of land in Morgan County, Indiana in June, 1834 and sold this 40 acres in September 1834 for $8.50.

Thomas Benton and Elizabeth White (Smart) Van Winkle and their family came on a 16 wagon train from Missouri to Williamson County, Texas in December 1851. Sometime shortly after they bought the R. Pilley survey, where their last two sons, Jonathan William and Jesse, were born. They sold this place in 1859 to Mr. Hughes. All records of this sale were destroyed when the Court House burned. Thomas hired a law firm, promising them 1/2 the land if they could get it back. The jury found in favor of John Horst, because there were no records where he had sold it. In 1868 Thomas filed on a 160 acre homestead on Big Lucy Creek next to his daughter Deida Hatley Parker. In 1872 it was approved.

In 1856 Thomas, his sons, James & Brice Miller, & 132 other citizens of Coryell County petitioned the Governor of Texas to make part of the territory of Coryell County into Lampasas County. It was approved in 1861.

Thomas and all his sons were farmers and ranchers, running mostly sheep and goats

Obituary

Mourn Christiny Thompson Hester
wife of Wiley Robertson Hester

On Tuesday morning, November 16, 1920, Mrs. M. C. Hester calmly passed away at the home of her son, W. A. Hester. She bore her last affliction with patience, which made it a pleasure to minister unto her. She was born March 4, 1845. Leaves aband and eleven children to mourn her departure, all of whom still live.

In early womanhood she united with the Methodist church and remained a consistent member until the day of her death.

She loved her church and attended every service she was able to attend.

O, how sad it was to part with mother. She loved her children and was always doing what she could to bring them happiness. She cannot come back to us, but we can go to her if we live right here on earth. The effects of her influence and therance of her memory will live forever.

One who loved her,
MRS. C. F. HESTER
