Obituary - "Pottsboro Notes" Denison Herald 9 September 1907 Mrs. Nancy.Elizabeth. Daniel, a pioneer citizen of this community, died Friday morning after a short illness at her residence, about three or four miles west of town and was buried Saturday evening in the Brogdon cemetery. A vast throng of people gathered at the cemetery to pay their last respects to an old and highly respected friend. Mrs. Daniel was born in Cass County, Mo. January 1841, and moved to Texas with her parents in 1854 and settled in Ellis County, where she was married in 1865 to Robert Daniel. Directly after her marriage she and her husband returned to Missouri where they remained a short time and returned to Texas, where they settled on the old homestead, just west of Pottsboro. She was the mother of eleven children, eight of whom survive her. When she and her husband located their land and settled on it, sometime in 1865, they did not have many neighbors. There was a settlement at Martin Springs and a ranch house where Pottsboro now stands, and perhaps a half dozen pioneer log cabins scattered around within a radius of six or seven miles. Her husband died in 1884, and was buried in the Brogdon Cemetery. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Graham. She professed religion and joined the Methodist Church in 1842, and lived a consistent Christian to the date of her death".
