Original grantee
W Fowler secured a patent in the same period that defined most of Freestone County's title fabric, the headright, bounty, and donation grants that the Republic and State of Texas issued through the 1840s and 1850s. The GLO indexes it as Robertson 3rd file 000317. with the patent issued to Campbell, Moses. The GLO patent file remains the controlling root document for any chain of title that runs through W Fowler.
