    Notes 
    • Owner of one of the earliest Pre-Republic Anglo-American structures in Texas, the Gaines-Oliphint House, still standing in 2006 in Sabine County, Texas. The two-story double log home was built in 1818 by James D. Taylor Gaines. The property was sold to Wilford Oliphint about 1840, but the bargain seems to have fallen through. The deed validly conveying the house and 61 acres of land was made by James GAINES and his son John B. GAINES, to Martha A. Oliphint on Feb. 17, 1842. (Sabine County Reporter, June 30, 2004, Page 18 "GAINES-OLIPHINT HOUSE HAS BIG DAY.")
