| 122103 | [AM STAFFORDdescendents.FTW] OCCUPATION: Received her education and taught in Illinois. BIOGRAPHY: The following was written by Ellis Milton Stafford aboout his mother. BIOGRAPHY: Sarah Lola (Ellis) Stafford was born in Putnam Co., TN near Cookeville, in March 1885. Many times I have heard my grandfather, James Ellis, tell of coming to Hamilton Co. in the fall of 1885 with his young wife, baby daughter, and two other families. BIOGRAPHY: They drove three teams of horses and three canvas covered farm wagons from Cookeville, over dirt roads to the Shawneetown ferry, where they crossed the river and continued to the homes of their relatives near Griswold Station, which later became Walpole. They camped and cooked out the entire way. BIOGRAPHY: My Grandfather's brother, Morgan F. Ellis, who lived southeast of Walpole, had just finished building a new chicken house. My Grandfather, wife, and baby (my mother), lived in it the first winter. They said it had a nice clay floor. BIOGRAPHY: My Grandfather worked with his older brother, Morgan F. Ellis, and learned to be a carpenter, and constructed many new homes in the area. BIOGRAPHY: One of the other two families who came to Hamilton Co. with my grandparents was: Abraham Alexander Ellis, my grandfather's older brother, and his wife Nancy (Phy) Ellis, older sister of my grandmother. BIOGRAPHY: Years later they returned to TN. Their youngest child, Bryan, never married, became a successful businessman in Cookeville, and died there a few years ago. My wife and I visited Cookeville in the 1950's and Bryan showed us many interesting landmarks there. BIOGRAPHY: My mother, Lola, was the oldest of thirteen children.

Penn Springs was at the intersection of Penn SpringsRoad and Danieldale Road, at a site that is now in the center ofDuncanville, eleven miles southwest of Dallas in southwest DallasCounty. It was on the original land grant of J. Anderson in an areawhere two springs flowed into a small reservoir. During a drought peoplecame thirty miles for water. Penn Springs was originally known as IndianSprings for the Native Americans who frequently camped there. Thecommunity was named after Maj. John Penn of Illinois, who first saw thearea in 1848 when he visited Crawford Trees, a friend of his fromIllinois. The two friends then traveled to California as part of the goldrush. After discovering gold, Penn returned to the springs area andpurchased a section of land owned by Phillip Kimmel. Penn traveled toIllinois, gathered his wife Nancy and their seven children, and returnedto Texas in 1854. Upon their arrival the Penn family constructed a logcabin on what became known as Penn Springs Place. Penn later formed asheep business with Samuel Uhl. Their sheep herds sometimes numbered asmany as 1,000. Penn Springs became a watering stop for pioneers,wagontrains, and cattle drives on the Shawnee Trail. In 1882 thecommunity hosted a reunion of Parsons's Brigade and a celebration of theAmerican Declaration of Independence. By 1900 the community was nolonger listed on Sam Street's Map of Dallas County, Texas.
