Bio

Aged 59 years Mother of three children Mrs. Galbreath was a daughter of Francis Winans, a native of Illinois, who came to Texas at an early day and settled in Bastrop county, where he became a prominent farmer and slave owner, but he later sold out and removed to Atascosa county, subsequent to which time he made a prospecting trip to Honduras, remaining there nine years, during which time he was engaged in the fruit business. He once more returned to Texas, where he spent his remaining days, his death occurring in Bastrop county. He was a native of Pennsylvania and of German descent, and during his residence in Texas he won the respect and good will of a large circle of friends. He was twice married and by his first union had one son, Isaac, a resident of Missouri, while eleven children were born of the second marriage, these being: Eliza A., who became the wife of J. Billingsly; Nancy Jane, who wedded Thomas Galbreath; William, who served in the war; Caroline, the wife of G. Wheat; Edward, who also served in the Confederate army; Emily, the wife of T. T. Teel; Robert, who died during his service in the army; Lewis, who died when young; Frank, a stock farmer; Rosette, the wife of John Nix; and Mrs. Melvina Smith. The parents and children were all identified with the Christian church. [A Twentieth Century History of Southwest Texas, Volume 2, 1907, pages 187-188] Contributor: Sherry (47010546)
