Graham, real estate and land agent in Graham, Young County, Texas. Graham points out situations in which the presence of squatters and the absence of land owners leads to devaluation of lands within Peters Colony and prevents the sale of lands at a fair market value. His message is that he can be trusted to handle any promotion and sale of said lands at a fair and reasonable cost. He can also be trusted to handle management of said lands with regard to renters.

Download or read book The Peters Colony of Texas written by Seymour V. Connor and published by Texas State Historical Assn. This book was released on 2005 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Texas State Historical Association is pleased to partner with the Collin County Historical Society to make Seymour V. Connor's The Peters Colony of Texas available once again. This classic work of Texas history, long out of print, was praised by John H. Jenkins in Basic Texas Books as "the best study of one of the largest land grants in Texas history." The TSHA first published The Peters Colony of Texas in 1959. The Peters Colony, totaling 16,000 square miles of North Texas, now includes twenty-six counties. Jenkins called it "a masterpiece of weaving together the threads of an extremely difficult historical puzzle with only the meagerest of source materials." For many years the book, with its documentation of early migration to Texas, was available to the public only in noncirculating library collections and an occasional appearance on the rare book market. The TSHA and the Collin County Historical Society are pleased to offer a paperback edition of The Peters Colony of Texas to bring this significant work of Texas history back to public attention.
