Call of the Land

This is a story about two families that come together in various places as they move across a new nation to the new land that calls them. They are neighbors in 1730 and help to carve out a new nation. They occasionally marry into each family as they move from Virginia across the nation to a new home in Texas. The people and places are real and documented in the census files. The story is fictional as the author takes liberty with the reasons for their moves and with their actions as they move. The dates are as accurate as can be determined by very old census files. The author is proud to be one of the last to marry and merge the two families together again and to tell this very unique story.
