     He Bucksnort Settlement Established in 1836


After the battle of San Jacinto, families slowly began returning to the area, but Fort Milam never reached its former importance except as the head of the Brazos military operations against the Indians.

A new trading post called Bucksnort was established on the east side of the Brazos River near present-day Marlin and by 1837, the Marlin family returned to Bucksnort, near Fort Milam, along with the Morgan family.

By this time Indians had become a constant threat. In June 1837 several men were attacked and one killed. On January 1, 1839, the women and children at Morgan Point, the home of the Morgans, were killed in what came to be called Morgan's Massacre. On January 10 the same group of Indians attacked Fort Marlin and were repulsed. Six days later the men from Bucksnort attacked the Indians; each side lost ten men, but the Indians won the encounter. Later that year the Texas legislature authorized men to patrol the region, and conflicts with Indians soon ceased. Peace was officially declared in 1845.
In 1844 Sam Houston, the President of the Republic of Texas, held an Indian council at Bucksnort, "this being the most convenient place for obtaining provisions and the last chance of getting anything to drink."
"Bucksnort was a place where Indian fighters gathered to share a drink and recount incidents of their exploits in the badlands. It was a distributing point for supplies needed by the early settlers as far north as what is now Ellis County."
After Texas had joined the Union in 1845 and war with Mexico was declared in 1848, "Bucksnort became an army camp. Volunteers from a wide section were outfitted for service, and Colonel Jack Hays, the intrepid commander, rallied his rough riders and rangers there." Nelson Denson, brought to the area as a slave by Jim Grundy, recalled "the old circular mile racetrack at Bucksnort frequented by sports from all over the state who made their headquarters at the Porter House, one of Bucksnort's leading business establishments."

In 1989, the Texas Historical Commission errected a marker at the site off FM 712 that reads:

"This area was first settled in 1837 by members of the Marlin and Menefee families. The settlement grew steadily, and for a time was known as Jarett Menefee's Supply Station. By the 1840s the village boasted a school, general store, blacksmith shop, racetrack, stable, saloon, stagecoach stop, and post office. According to local legend, the name Bucksnort was coined by an inebriated patron of the saloon. By the 1850s, as settlers moved into other areas in the county, Bucksnort was no longer a viable community."

BUCKSNORT, TEXAS. Bucksnort, originally Jarrett Menefee's Supply Station, was located on a 320-acre prairie owned by Thomas J. Chambersqv in what is now east central Falls County. The settlement, about five miles northeast of the falls on the Brazos River below the rebuilt Fort Milam, which provided protection for the settlers, was bounded on the west by a bayou that flowed into Musselrun Creek and on to the Brazos River. When John and Mary Menefee Marlin and James and Nancy Taylor Marlin returned with their families to their land near the Falls of the Brazos in 1837 after the Runaway Scrape,qv they found some of their Menefee relatives at the Angelina River. The families of the brothers Laban and Jarrett Menefee accompanied the Marlins and others to the east side of the river, where they formed a little settlement, later called Bucksnort. John Marlin's fort-like home lay three miles south and Dr. Allensworth Adams's home a mile directly north. Supplies were freighted from lower settlements, and the community grew until it had enough children to form a school.

The name Bucksnort, said to have been suggested by an inebriated customer of the saloon, was first recorded in 1844 by William Howe of Ellis County: "Bucksnort is the only supply station between Nashville and Dallas where a man can go to buy food and supplies." When Robertson County was organized in 1838, elections ordered by the county court were held at or near Jarrett Menefee's place. In January 1842 Menefee was one of three men appointed by the Robertson County Commissioners Court to consider a road from Franklin to a place near the falls, or to Menefee's place, and in October of that year five men were ordered to study the route and lay out the road. In 1843 Capt. J. B. Smith recruited a company of eighty men from the surrounding country who eventually joined John Coffee Hays'sqv Texas Rangersqv and served in the Mexican War.qv

Movement to the area was steady in the 1840s, and the settlement grew until it had a school, a general store, a blacksmith shop, a saloon, a racetrack with a stable, and a stagecoach stop that served as a post office. On February 8, 1845, Jarrett Menefee purchased the 320-acre tract he had improved as overseer for Chambers. When Menefee died sometime before 1849, his heirs sold the property to J. E. Francks, who in turn sold it to three prominent brothers, David G., John, and James B. Barton. The three men operated the Barton Ranch on the property until their deaths. In 1846, when Limestone County was marked off from Robertson County, Bucksnort became part of Precinct 2 of Limestone County. Four years later, the site became part of Falls County. The name of the settlement was first officially recognized when the Robertson County Commissioners Court ordered an election to be held at the usual place in Bucksnort at the time of annexationqv to the United States. Bucksnort residents, however, had already begun to scatter to other communities as the area became safer, and more settlers left as new lands were made available. The community became extinct by about 1852.
