Hall, General Adam R.

They amrked for us our channels of trade adn industry, built the first schools and churches, an dafter the tumult of Indian depredations and the terrible scars of the Civil War, returned and again took up the ax and plow and brought new acres into cultivation. Most of them died in obscurity and were laid to rest in the county of their adoption. As the rank and file of our pioneers we honor their memory for the deeds they performed and the doctrines they taught.

Burnet County created February 5, 1852, organized August 28, 1852 by Logan Vandeveer, William H. Magill, R. H. Hall, Commissioners.
