In Response To: Re: Hensley's farm ()

Thompson ate with General Stand Watie and then a few hours later Thompson reached Boggy Depot and ate with General Cooper.
Stayed three days at Boggy Depot.
Gen. cooper loaned Thompson an ambulance to take him to Red river.
At Boggy Depot Gen. Shelby contracted for oxen to haul the battery.
Thompson moves on with the command and leaves Shelby at Boggy Depot but when Thompson reached Red River Shelby overtook them and preceeded Thompson into Bonham Texas.
When Thompson received orders to move he walks into Bonham Texas, met some old friends there, passed through the town and camped a few miles from town.
This night is when Thompson received orders to take command because of Shelby and Staff's furlough.
This is where I think Hensley's farm was and John Russel is probably right on the money.
