    The information on Hunt County Tax Rolls and Land Deeds were copied from original records on microfilm and is in the possession of P.Cruthirds.
    Hunt County Tax Rolls: The first year taxes were assessed for Hunt Co. was in 1846.
    The first time our Julius WILLBURN appears is in 1863 with 500 acres, Original Grantee is Wm. R. Duvall. Our Wilbourn name is spelled various ways: WILBURN, WILLBURN, WILBORN, WILBOURNE, WELBURNE, WILBORNE, WELLBURN and surprisingly enough, for the majority of the time it is spelled WILBOURN. Julius appears in consecutive years, increasing his acreage, until 1892.
    In addition to the land tax the property is taxed for horses, cattle, sheep, goats, hogs, carriages and wagons. Starting in 1882 there are no longer sheep or goats and the property contains pretty much the same as previous years until 1892. Sons of Julius, John Ira and Andrew J. appear on the Tax Rolls until 1889 with brother W. H. last appearing in 1890. The last year J H COMPTON, (Delphia Caroline's husband) appears on the Rains Co., Tax Roll is 1887. In 1888 J H COMPTON'S property is referred to as "Est. of J H COMPTON."

    In the book History of Hunt County there is an entry dated 23 Oct. 1869 for _____ Wilburn. He is listed as a charter member of the Fred Ende Lodge #87 International Order of Odd Fellows, located near Lone Oak, Texas, about 15 miles from Greenville. Since there are no other Wilbourns in Hunt County at that time this is probably our Julius.

    Patricia Cruthirds stated:
    Aunt Toots said that after the death of Louise,Julius remarried and lived close to Emory and Alba, TX in Rains County.

    Louise MILLIORN/WILBOURN died at age 78 in 1901. Julius WILBOURN remarried at some point after and moved to Rains Co., TX living close to Alba, Texas (Information from Aunt Toots GRAHAM/DUNCAN.) We have a photograph that is taken the year before Julius died (1903) with location as Gail, Texas There is a photograph of John I Wilbourn that belongs to Pat Panko and I wonder if this couldn't be our John Ira Wilbourn, Julius's son and Grandma Graham's beloved Uncle John Wilbourn. Julius probably named this son for his brother, John Wilkes Wilbourn. Aunt Toots is going to try and find out if there is a Wilbourn cousin she used to know in San Angelo who is related to us and she used to correspond with some years back (May 2000).
