I'm wondering if there are any descendants of the old 300 on the GS. If so please sound off.

My in-law's family (John Matthews) arrived in 1827 and bought the land that was granted to Old Three Hundred member James Nelson two years earlier in what is now Colorado County. The community of Matthews is still on the map, and much of the land is still in the family, along with the original Spanish Land Grant signed by Stephen F Austin and Baron de Bastrop. So, my sons are not direct descendants of Old Three Hundreds, but their family was among the first settlers, and their family farm has been in continuous operation for 195 years now.
