Notes:
* It is said that Robert Bell SYPERT, in search of new land, arrived in Texas in 1856 on the back of a Tennessee Walker horse. He found the land he wanted and in order to buy it, he sold his Tennessee Walker. With the money, he purchased 200 acres of land for $800 from J.E. Whitehorn, about 2 miles SE of the present Hallsville, Texas. The family story goes that Robert walked back to Tennessee to gather his family, slaves, farm animals and household belongings to move to Texas.
