Shared note	[UND:]Robert Edgar "Ed" Pyland's rememberances.[:UND] Recorded by his son, Van Wesley Pyland: I had a great uncle named Bill Pyland (William Warren "Bill" Pyland) who was a deputy sheriff under Sheriff Bud Flowers right after the Civil War - killed several men. The country became so hot for him he had to come to Texas. One incident with Henry Warren, a desperado whom he killed in an attempt to arrest: Warren shot Bill's hand off and Bill nearly died of lock-jaw. The Daly boys (desperados) met Bill at a political picnic, picked a quarrel, but Bill bluffed them out. Bill Pyland was only 18 years old when the war ended. He had a fight with John Wilburn in Lindon, Tennessee, then county seat of Perry County. Wilburn was shot down, but recovered. This fight brought on such intense feelings between friends of the two families that Bill Pyland came to Texas and first settled in Brown County near the town of Brownwood, but later came to Robertson County and settled there in the southwest corner of the county in the Brazos River bottoms. In the winter of 1876 the entire family of Britton Pyland (my great grandfather) came to Texas where Bill Pyland had already located in Robertson County, James Wesley Pyland (my grandfather) bringing his family also. The trip took 40 days in wagons. My father, Robert Edgar Pyland, was only 6 weeks old when they left Tennessee. There were three boys in Britton Pyland's family: William Warren "Bill" Pyland, James Wesley Pyland (my grandfather) and John Riley Pyland who married Laura Neeley who was Morgan Neeley's sister. Morgan Neeley was a famous gunfighter of those early days. Living at 917 S. 16th St, Waco, McLennan Co, Texas in 1920.
