. Civil War Battle & Massacre of Centralia, MO:
On the morning of September 27, 1864 some 50 Rebel bushwhackers, some dressed in captured Union uniforms, under Capt. "Bloody Bill" Anderson rode into the village of Centralia, whose population was less than 100 persons. Centralia in 864 had about a dozen homes, 2 small hotels & a couple of general stores. Most of the 60 or so citizens were Southern sympathizers. While waiting for the train, they terrorized local civilians, robbing & burning stores & killing a civilian who had attempted to defend a young woman. The stage from Columbia came in to the community & they robbed the passengers. During the Civil War was very divided & the state had the third most battles during the war. Jesse James & brothers were present at this battle. One can image the simmering atmosphere that prevailed in Centralia long after the Civil War was 'won'.

. The High Life in Missouri, Not Just For Samuel Clements.
The question of whether slavery would be expanded into Missouri lead to a bloody border war. Bands of Missouri bushwhacker & Kansas jayhawkers crossed the boarder to loot & lynch during & continued after the late Civil War. Missouri furnished volunteers for both the Union & Confederate armies.

. Outlaw, Jesse James born in Kearney, Clay Co., Missouri, during the Civil War, he joined the Confederate guerrilla band known as Quantrill's Raiders in 1863 or 1864. Returning to Missouri in 1865, Jesse & his brother Frank found that, although the Civil War was officially over, Missourians were still belligerent. In 1866 the James brothers joined forces with the Younger brothers to form an outlaw band. For 16 years Jesse James & his gang robbed trains & banks in Missouri, Kentucky & the midwestern states.

Richard Patterson was born in King's Lynn, Norfolk Co., England. Some of evidence of this:

Wm. Smeaton, married Sarah Paterson, Born LYNN, England, 21y /1838,
d/o Mary Ann & Richard Paterson.
Note2: Marriage of daughter Sarah Patterson - is a slight confusing of who was born in Lynn. Her mother, Mary Ann Catchpole Patterson was born in Wangford By Southwold, Suffolk Co., England. KING'S LYNN is usually shortened to Lynn. (Daughter Sarah Patterson was, of course, born in Ontario.)

. King's Lynn is a seaport known until 1537 as Bishop's Lynn & is in Northfolk Co., England, about 98 miles /158 km. north of London. Could a reason for Richard's emigration have been the 1832 cholera epidemic in King's Lynn?
Aylsham was named for a Saxon settlement called Aegel, for ham for village. In 1086 it was was recorded in the Domesday Book as Elesham. The parish church St Peter Belaugh, Ingworth Deanery, dates before 1385. . - .

. The first settlers came into Central Wellington co. mainly by 3 routes: First by the old Indian trail along the Grand River from the German settlement in Waterloo; 2nd from dunes St. by way of Erin & Eramosa: & third, from Guelph after its founding in 1827, by way of Eramosa or Elora.
* A D Ferrier's Reminiscences, from lectures delivered to Farmers & Mechanics Institute, Fergus in 1864. Ferrier recalls his travels starting in 1830-1834.
About Jun 1834 he started in the stage, a common lumber wagon, for Guelph & and awful shaking we got. When we got a mile or two out of Dundas I resolved to walk. The woods look so hight & dismal that I hunted up a god big stuff in case of meeting a bear. The traveling through the one woods than was bump against a stump or the big roots & then thump into a hole, with a losing variety of little steep gravel & sand knolls now & then, especially aft getting into Puslinch Twp. I never travelled that road in a wagon again, except one, and then was because I had cut my foot, so I could not help it. The crossed ways too were numerous & bad.
We dined at Patterson's Inn on the great Canadian standard dish - ham and eggs. After leaving the old "Red House" there was not a decent looking house till we got close to Guelph.

LICKING HISTORY
. 1850 to 57, Township 32, Range 19, Registered settlers: R. Patterson.
. 1856 - (Mrs. Martha Mitchell Nichol & 8 children moved from Kentucky to) Licking, though there was only a log store to mark the place.
. Licking takes its name from a buffalo lick within a quarter mile east, which was alive with deer up 1835. As early as 1826 2 men J Baldride & Barney Low, established their homes NW near the lick.
. First postmaster was John Sherrill, the mail line being from Caledonia to Springfield. The Delawares & Shawnees were visitors, making temporary villages along the creeks. the Indians continued to visit the country in the fall & winter, along after the settlements had rendered it too crowded. It is believed by the more credulous old settlers that they still returned covertly. There is a tradition that they have an enormous treasure of silver hidden away under the ground somewhere, to which they annually return to replenish their purses. As late as 1838 & later they were passing through here on the old White River trace or trail made by their forefathers; this passed through Licking. Osages, Delawres & Shawnees were the most familiar. Another trace crossed the county from Licking toward the east. Along these the Indians filed with their points, laden with pelts, fruits for the big city on the river; they sometimes spoke of Meramec Spring as the 'Big Lick Spring". There is no trace of any village in the county, however.
The first settlers came to Tex Co. about 1828. From that prior until the war broke out people came in rapidly & Houston & Locking were flashing little villages. At the close of the war few housed were left in the county. alternate raids by the contending parties left it a barren land, so that 1865 found the county almost a depopulated land.
Ref: History of Lacede …Texas Co., MI., 1889 March.

. 1857 - Licking & Houston were both on railway lines. The original survey was made by Jonathan Yates in 1857, & acknowledged by Mary Sherrill July 24 of that year. This Licking is at least 20 years older than Houston. Daniel Boone a frontiersmen, had lived in the region for a time as early as 1816.

[Texas County Farming After the Civil War:]
. 1865 Dec 1, Missouri Agriculture Report: There are thousands of acres yet to be had, under the homestead act or at $1.25 per acre. This land is of course not the best, but there is a good land yet to enter - great chances now for men of small means to emigrate to this country to get good homes for a small amount of money. Those wishing to purchase, here are some names of several improved farms for sale: Spencer Mitchell, 1 miles south o Licking, Valentine Sutton, town of Houston, Joel Sherrell, 6 miles north of Living. The above are the largest land holders.
Cattle & Hogs do well. I do not believe that we can be beat in any country in the State. Our cattle, the few left by the army, aw well as hogs, are fat in the woods. Cattle are feeding on Arthur's creek bottom, on blue grass, lying in mats. Bushels of acorns are lying on the ground, affording sufficient food for hogs all winter - more than our present number of hogs can eat.
Horses & Mules do well. the army has left us but few either. when we have any for sale, the market is at home.
Sheep: This is a great country for sheep, but there are few in county at this time in consequence of the army having been in the country. Thousands have been killed & taken off.
Signed, A M Wade, Clerk of Circuit & County Courts, Houston.

The town was incorporated June 29, 1847, & postal service was extended the next January. - Richard Patterson settled in Texas county seat of Houston. During the Civil War (1861-65) the Houston courthouse was destroyed twice.

SPRINGS & CAVES at Houston - The Blankenship Springs are located 2 & one-quarter miles north of Houston, in a beautiful dell near Piney River. There are many springs, with as many different kinds of water, all of which unite & go sweeping over the pebbles, upon which is left a beautiful golden bronze. But few of these springs have been analyzed. They are in a romantic place, & the picturesque scenery cannot be excelled. A fine cave near the hotel, which has been used for keeping fresh meats, milk, butter, etc., is superior to anything ever used for that purpose. The temperature is 59 degrees. There are many other caverns, not only around Houston, but throughout the county.

. In 1860 the family came to Texas County, Missouri, settling on a farm some 2 miles NE of Dykes, Missouri,
Ref: Obituary of daughter Phebe Meyers, 1929 Jan 17, Houston Herald .
. CIVIL WAR: Alternate raids by the contending parties left it a barren waste, so that 1865 found the county almost de-populated. ...The Houston was destroyed twice during the war, & when peace was proclaimed she had not a single inhabitant, nor was there even a barn standing within her present limits. It took a long time to recover from this blow. For some time the site was occupied by a few people who lived in shanties hastily thrown up between showers, & a store, the proprietors of which handled only a few necessaries of life. But the lands surrounding the town were too valuable to remain idle very long, & those who had been driven away by the troubles of the times came back to their old homes & went to work. Political differences were forgotten, & new houses took the places of the old.
