Wagon Train to Texas
Submitted by:  Narris W. Braly

This list was made by searching  the 1850 Census of Caroline County, Virginia, the 1860 Census of Burleson County, Texas, and the Cemetery Records of Burleson County, Texas to compile this list of probable members of that 1854 wagon train. Some may have died during the trip and some may have joined the wagon train after it left Caroline County, Virginia.

The spelling of the names is from Census Records and tombstones. The family members are in the order that they were in the Carolina County, Virginia, Census or the Burleson County, Texas, Census. I believe this is a total of 81 members.
