by Richard W. Parmer (Author)

A true story of two pioneer families: Wittenburg and Parmer that come together as one on July 3, 1964. The two family's history and the history of Texas melt together. William Wittenburg, born in 1825 in Westphalia, Prussia, was born after Napoleon's army conquered most of Germany between 1800 & 1812, seizing the land and dispossessing the landowners. At 23, William boarded a ship for America, after serving the required three years in the Prussian army and three years acquiring a master's license in sheep husbandry.

On Nov. 25, 1826 he presided over the court-martial that tried and convicted Samuel Norris and his attorney Jose' Antonio Sepulveda of Nacogdoches.
