(November 4, 1813 - September 18, 1894) Tennessee native Milton Hardin moved to Texas in 1826 with his parents, settling in present day Liberty County. In 1835 he fought at the Battle of Concepcion and the Siege of Bexar and secured a land grant for his service. He later sold the land that became the Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation. Milton Hardin married Mary Isbell; they became the parents of three children. He moved to Hood County and later Johnson County, where he died. (1997) |
