Worth and Sherman. Along it many of Collin County' s earliest settlers took up land. Old survey maps show the boundaries of their proper ties. When they died they were usually buried on their own land or in a nearby family cemetery. Some of these cemeteries have grown and are still in use. Others are small and almost lost in relatively inaccessible • wooded areas . Telephone Road begins on the north edge of McKinney. For several miles going north it parallels and runs between old and new Hwy. 75. But it soon crosses the new Hwy 75 and thereafter parallels and runa west of it, This crossing point is noted by a highway sign, Along Hwy 75 in this general area can also be seen the • signe for Throc.kmorton Road and Foster Crossing, both named for early settlers. About ten miles north of 'McKinney, Telephone: Road (and Hwy 75) crosses the Anna­ Weston Road, FM 455. From this eros sing it continues north past the old Hurri­ cane Creek Hun ting Farm and on to the new Hurricane Creek Country Club, north of which once existed the old settlement of Mantua from 1854-1872, From this point the road continues north across the county line toward Sherman in Grayson County. • It becomes very difficult to fellow because of new road cuts, bridges no longer in existence and so forth" · The history which foliows was copied from an undated and unsigned clipping from the ''McKinney Daily Courier-Gazette. 11 • "The earliest settlers of ou.r coIDII1Jnity were several families of settlere from Illinois, who came by wagon traih and arrived in 1842. Among them were a Wysong, ancestor of the McKinney OOCTORS WYSONG, TOM RATTAN, great grandfather of DOW RATTAN, a resident on Telephone Road, and a DR. THROCKMORTON, who at that time was not only a medical doctor but also a surveyor. At that time, Texas was an independent Republic and Collin County was part of Fannin County. DR. • THROCKM)RTON is famous as the first surveyor of vast acres of north Texas land. He settled on land now owned by the 'SHERLEY family of Anna and located· just north of what is now the DYSART place, The well which he dug is still there as well as bits of china and glass to mark where the house stood. Just to the east is the OLD THROCKMORTON CEMETERY where DR. THROCKMORTON is buried, In it, in the 1930's, the Daughters of the Republic of Texas erected a monument over his grave. Most • of the graves are unnamed or illegiable, however there are several WYSONG markere. Also three Italians were buried here. They were supposedly killed by Indiana. The second earliest settlement was located 5 miles north of McKinney (and was) known as the Trinity school district, You can really almost say they both • began about the same time, The first settler in thearea was LEROY CLEMENTS, who located on Clements creek in 1842, where he headrighted 640 acres of land, He and his brother WESLEY, with their families moved from 8 miles north of Old English in Fannin County to the settlement of Throckmorton and shortly moved to their claims, LEROYS on the creek and WESLEYS near Ro land. WESLEY was killed the same year and his family came to live with LEROY, This creek now goes by the • name of CLEMENTS and PLEMMONS. -2- • • Map of • THE QLD TELEPHONE ROAD , COLLIN COUNTY, TEXAS GRAYSON COU NrY • (county line) • • • • l, Alexander 2 .

LEWIS and AUNT POLLY BOONE headrighted land in the locality. SMITH'S and LEWIS'S land being north of CLEMENT'S and MRS. BOONE'S west of SMITH'S. The Old Trinity school house being built on MRS. BOONE'S land. In 1845 SIHPSON PULLIAM, ABNER SMALLEY and JOHN RART homesteaded over next to the East Fork Creek. That same year BUFFORD • CLEMENTS headrighted 1,280 acres around the mouth of Clements Creek and south. AUNT POLLY BOONE has many descendants living near and in our community. The CLEMENTS were related to the THROCKMORTONS. No history of our neighborhood is complete without some mention of COLLIN MCKINNEY, signer of the Texas Declaration of lndependence in 1836. Although he • was not of the Throckioorton settlement, he did live at old Man tua, a settlement about 4 miles north of us. Another noted settler was JOHN FITZHUGH and family. The old FITZHUGH place was really a fort, having a stocksde encloaing two or three log cabins. The old spring is still there but all trace of the homestead is gone. JONATHON ALLEN, another settler, and his faml.ly came to Collin in 1851 to select a home. He bought the old BATEMAN place which is now occupied by the • LAWRENCE MILLER faml.ly. One of his sona, llALICHA, married one of Texas 1 gres test patriots, RICHARD B. ROYAL 'S daughter. MALICHA ALLEN was appointed by the Legi­ slature to aurvey out the new boundaries of Collin when the county was carved from Fannin county. JONATHAN ALLEN'S youngest daughter married P. N. BATEMAN and was the mother of QUATE (SISSY) BATEMAN, the famous baseball player. Another member of this famous family waa MISS MINERVA MIMMS. Her home place now being • the present JIM DALE place. Other familiar names were COFFMAN, SLAUGHTER, BOYER, BRYAN, and KINKAID. JOHN KINKAID was courtin' a RATTAN daughter all the way from Illinois, so after a Texas wedding, they settled on what is now the OYSART place. They becsme the proud posaesaora of the first pig in this part of the Republic. They kept it • tied to a tree and led it to the creek for water. Also of local interest is the fact that it is the belief that the mother of JOE MOORE was the first White baby girl to be bom in Collin County. She was LEROY CLEMENTS daughter. Few of the deacendants of these old settlere now live in the Telephone Road Community, but to mention a few are as follows: FRANK BOONE, who married UNCLE • JESSIE ORANDUFF 'S daughter KAY: UNCLE JESSIE being the son of WILLIAM ORANDUFF, one of the first settler&. The JOHNNY PLEASANT family now live in the old ORANDUFF home. The old JIM CAVE home or the SMITH home originally, is occupied by his great nephew, ROY CAVE. The old JAMES ROW house has been torn down and been replaced by a beautiful modem brick home occupied by Mr. and Mrs. BILL GILES. • MEEK DYSART and his son JOHNSTON brought their families from Missouri in 1857 and settled on the old road. The house that JOHNSTON OYSART built still stands on a spot said to be the highes t in the county. At the slave market in Sherman he bought 2 two or three-year-old negro girls. One died, but descendants of the other still live in the community. Several slaves left during the war, • but one UNCLE BILL came back and stayed until his death. Other families who emne later on were the LOFTICE, BOONE and CA.VE and of course many more. The neighborhood bad a good supply of Indiana when the first settler& came. Some horses were stolen and driven northward by the Indiana. The owners followed • and recovered the horses but one of the men was killed .

Jackson takes a picture of an Indian taking a picture of an Indian as Andrew Smith protects his soul from theft.” Photo credit: © Will Wilson, courtesy of the artist. ii Abstract This thesis investigates the relationship between historical ethnographic photographs of Native Americans, their disposition in archives and collections, and the relationship of those images to their contemporary circulation and use by Native American artists, and others, particularly in New Mexico. Having undertaken original research into mid-19th century photographs in archives internationally, pertaining to Native America in the American Southwest, new histories and a re- framing of the photographs in question has been assembled. This portion of the research was undertaken both as a starting point for further investigation, and as a return to the people of New Mexico, particularly the Indigenous inhabitants of that place.
