Scottish involvement in the Texas History - John Cameron's Grant

[Cameron of Texas]

Sound like you belong there.

Looking at your map, it looks like John had two grants.

If I'm eyeballing it right... it would be in the Big Country, generally west of Abilene

[Cameron of Texas]

Another Cameron, Evan Dhu, came to Texas from Trinity (now Duke) Univ, called to the ministry. He would then go north to Oklahoma Territory to set up and pastor churches and get involved in public education, eventually becoming Oklahoma's first Superintendent of Schools.

Cameron University in Lawton is named for him
