Thomas D. Watson (1836) and brother William Henry Watson (1840) wereb in Fayette
Co. TN. Their brothers were Elisha A. (5 Feb 1847) andJohn Bibb (26 Aug 1857).
They were heirs in 1883 of a Thomas D.Watson "late of Petersburg, VA,"
in a Bastrop Co. TX deed. I believethey are sons of a John Watson, whose wife
Martha D. d 20 Jul 1876and is buried in Bastrop Co. TX. These Watsons appear to
be in RedRiver and Bowie Co. TX 1840s and settled in Red Rock, Bastrop Co.
TX1849.
