      Speights says that the family can be traced "back to an early American who came to North Carolina from Gottsburg, Sweden in 1772, drifted to Mississippi....in the 1850's the Andersons, along with their relatives, the Coopers, the Brents, Deans and Bosticks, set out for Texas." (Speights, Old Timers of Sabine County, Texas, p. 65).
