U.S. Senator from Texas.
Samuel Bell Maxey spent his early years in Tompkinsville, Monroe County, Kentucky. His family lived in nearby Clinton County when Maxey was appointed to United States Military Academy at West Point. Upon graduation in 1846, he was breveted a Second Lieutenant in the regular army and served in the Mexican War until its close in 1848. In 1849 he resigned from the United States Army and returned to his home in Clinton County, Kentucky, where he studied law under his father, Rice Maxey. In 1850 he entered law practice with his father and in 1857 they moved their families and business to Paris, Texas.
In 1862 Maxey was made a Brigadier General in the Confederate Army and served briefly in the Trans-Mississippi Department. In December, 1863, he was made Commander of the Indian Territory where he served until February, 1865.
As an attorney, Maxey became acquainted with many of the prominent lawyers and politicians of Texas. He traveled to Austin and other places over the state in order to conduct his legal business. He was acquainted with Richard Coke, James W. Throckmorton, Oran M. Roberts, Guy M. Bryan, John H. Reagan and others of political note in Texas. He maintained his acquaintance with his political friends in Kentucky, namely, Governor Preston J. Leslie and U. S. Attorney-General James Speed. The culmination of this period of Maxey's life came in 1874 when he was elected to the United States Senate.
Maxey was defeated for reelection in 1887. In 1888 he returned to his law practice in Paris, Texas, and spent his last years there. He had five law partners during his lifetime. They were Rice Maxey, William H. H. Long, Henry William Lightfoot, Ben H. Denton, and W. F. Gill. Samuel Bell Maxey's wife, Marilda, was the daughter of George N. Denton, a Baptist preacher and farmer of Overton County, Tennessee.
Dora Rowell Maxey was the daughter of Thomas Rowell of Florida. Her father was a Confederate soldier who died in the Civil War. She was left an orphan and was legally adopted in 1863 by Samuel Bell Maxey and his wife. She attended a girl's school in Danville, Kentucky, from 1872 to 1874. She married Henry William Lightfoot and had two children, Sallie Lee Lightfoot and Thomas Chenoweth Lightfoot.
Sam Bell Maxey Long, grandnephew and foster son of Samuel Bell Maxey, attended Schools in Washington, D. C., and was a page in the United States Senate, and later obtained a degree from the University of Texas in 1892. He accompanied Maxey to Washington in 1876 when he was a small boy and continued to do so for a number of years. He married Lala Williams, daughter of J. S. Sheb Williams.

Among Maxey's contributions during his Congressional career were his support of the establishment of new mail routes in the frontier West in his capacity as chairman of the Senatorial Committee on Post Office and Post Roads, the introduction of bills for river and harbor improvements across the nation, and his speeches for the improvement of Indian relations.
Maxey was defeated for reelection in 1887. In 1888 he returned to his law practice in Paris, Texas, and spent his last years there. He had five law partners during his lifetime. They were Rice Maxey, William H. H. Long, Henry William Lightfoot, Ben H. Denton, and W. F. Gill.
Samuel Bell Maxey Chronology
Samuel Bell Maxey's wife, Marilda, was the daughter of George N. Denton, a Baptist preacher and farmer of Overton County, Tennessee. The letters she received from Maxey during the years 1875 to 1887 were almost a daily journal of the events taking place in Washington at that time.
Dora Rowell Maxey was the daughter of Thomas Rowell of Florida. Her father was a Confederate soldier who died in the Civil War. She was left an orphan and was legally adopted in 1863 by Samuel Bell Maxey and his wife. She attended a girl's school in Danville, Kentucky, from 1872 to 1874. The bulk of her letters is contained in the correspondence of Mrs. Samuel Bell Maxey.
Sam Bell Maxey Long, grandnephew and foster son of Samuel Bell Maxey, attended Schools in Washington, D. C., and was a page in the United States Senate, and later obtained a degree from the University of Texas in 1892. He accompanied Maxey to Washington in 1876 when he was a small boy and continued to do so for a number of years. He accompanied Maxey everywhere, even when Maxey called on government officials. Sam Bell Maxey Long's letters to Mrs. Maxey and to his mother, Mary Gatewood Long, reveal details of events in Washington.
Born in Tompkinsville, Kentucky, Samuel Bell Maxey (1825-1895) received an appointment to the U. S. Military Academy at West Point at the age of 17.
After graduation Maxey joined the 7th Infantry in Monterrey, Mexico, during the Mexican War where he participated in the battles of Contreras, Churubusco, and Molina del Rey. After the war he resigned from the army and returned to Kentucky to study law under his father. Maxey married Marilda Cass Denton, though an increasingly unprofitable practice forced the families to move to Texas in 1857, where they settled in Paris. Shortly after arriving in Texas, Maxey was appointed district attorney for Lamar County, a position he held until joining the Confederate Army in 1861. Maxey organized the 9th Texas Infantry Regiment that joined a Confederate Army in Memphis and fought at Shiloh, though Maxey saw little action and typically commanded support functions, such as guarding roads and bridges. In 1863, Maxey was given command of the Indian Territory, though he saw no major engagements.
After the war, Maxey struggled to gain the presidential pardon necessary for high-ranking ex-Confederate offices until his former West Point classmate, Ulysses S. Grant, recommended Maxey for one.
He was thus able to reopen his law practice and run for political office. In 1875, Maxey was elected to the U. S. Senate, where he argued for free silver, internal improvements for Texas, and was instrumental in improving the postal system in Texas. After being replaced by the Texas Legislature for not taking interest in national or party affairs in 1887, Maxey returned to Paris and his law practice until his death in 1895.

Marston, Henry, 1794-1884. Henry Marston family papers, 1820-1938 (bulk 1850-1890).
Title:
Henry Marston family papers, 1820-1938 (bulk 1850-1890).
Plantation records, diaries, business records, legal documents, and personal correspondence reflect the activities of the Marston family, particularly in Clinton, East Feliciana Parish, La. Plantation diaries of Henry Marston (1822-1832, 1855-1883) record details of plantation management; later entries reflect his role as an absentee plantation owner. An overseer's contract (1857) is present. Diaries record weather conditions, crop disease and new plant varieties, mortgages and insurance coverage, repairs to plantation equipment, travel from Port Hudson to the Red River, and mail service. Papers reflect Marston's sale of cotton in New Orleans. Diaries relate to business matters of the Clinton & Port Hudson Railroad Company and the Silliman Female Collegiate Institute. Some entries record local news of births, deaths, and public health in the community, including reports of the yellow fever epidemic of 1871. Diaries reflect views on African Americans' participation in politics and race relations during Reconstruction and record Marston's activities in a local temperance council and reflect his religious views. Letter books (1839-1884) contain correspondence to clients of the Union Bank of Louisiana, to commission merchants, and to business firms regarding materials needed at the bank, on Marston's plantation, and for personal use. A record book (1828-1836) holds the proceedings of the administrators of the East Feliciana Parish school fund. Union Bank of Louisiana accounts and receipts (1835-1850) and a charter of the Silliman Female Collegiate Institute (1852) are present. Letters (1883-1884) from Henry Marston to his brother, John Marston, a retired US Navy Rear Admiral of Philadelphia, discuss health and family matters and political issues. Civil War materials include records of Capt. Bulow Marston's service in the Confederate Army, including letters from Generals Maxey and Cooper to Federal General Thayer concerning Confederate civilians. Bulow's divisional report (Dec. 1864) contains statistics on the Confederate Army's use of Native American troops. Later letters by Bulow Marston reflect his activities as a plantation owner, steamboat captain, and warehouse owner. His correspondence reflects his plantation management, including his involvement in fighting the boll weevil, his trade in cotton, and his ownership and captaincy of steamboats. Mortgages of Ashland, Home, Bee, and Star Point Plantation are included. James G. Marston's diary contains entries (May-Sept. 1864) describing the Siege of Atlanta. Papers of Abbie L. Marston (1890-1938) indicate that she managed her father's personal and plantation business after his death in 1884. She was active in civic affairs in Clinton. A series of letters from J. Walker Marston of Texas to his aunt, Abbie Marston, describe his work as a cowhand and trade in horses and mules. Letters (1937-1938) of Abbie Marston McLelland relate to the Randall and Wederstrandt branches of the family.

Title:
Secretary of State boundary records 1837-1843, 1858-1860, 1873-1877, 1882, 1885-1887, 1911, undated
In 1837, the Congress of the Republic of Texas authorized the President to appoint a commissioner to act with a commissioner to be appointed by the United States to survey the eastern boundary of Texas; in 1838, the Congress ratified a Convention between the two nations providing for such a survey. The boundary commission finished its work in 1841. In 1854, the Texas legislature agreed to cooperate with a United States Commission to define the northern and western boundaries of Texas. These records consist of correspondence, reports, vouchers, and abstracts of account of the Texas Boundary Commissioners and of the United States Commissioner. Dates covered are 1837-1843, 1858-1860, 1873-1877, 1882, 1885-1887, 1911, and undated.
