 notes: Nathaniel and Nancy finally settled in Denton Co TX prior to 1 JUL 1844.
       Later, Nancy patented 640 acres, Oliver;160 acres, James;160 acres.
       Lafford received a land certificate, but it was later deemed as illegal.
       He moved on and was on the Lamar County(just east of Grayson)tax list
       for 1846. Michael was granted a certificate for 160 acres in Denton Co,
       but it was never patented.

        Because of the French family, the area of the present city of Lake Dallas,
       TX was known as French. It was changed to Garza, then Lake Dallas.
       Much of the old settlement is now under water.

        Some of the children of Michael French seem to have been on the wrong
       side of the law, appearing in court to defend accusations of horse theft,
       assault, kidnapping, and whiskey peddling. In fact, Thomas, Alexander
       and Stephen were all sent to Federal prisons. Alexanders' sons Tom and
       Jack boarded with the Abner Hanna family in 1910 LeFlore Co OK.

 notes:  Martha, Michael Jr's second wife, was first married to Michael's younger
        brother John, who may have passed on before 1843.

         In January of 1843, Michael & Martha French were charged with "Open and
        Notorious Lewdness". In other words, they were living together without benefit
        of a marriage license. Michael paid a $400 fine, and Martha disappeared for a
        short while. She was pregnant with their son Thomas at the time.

         In November of 1876, their son Thomas was arrested on suspicion of being
       the head of a plot to burn down the city of Linden, Perry Co TN. He was placed
       in jail for his own safety, and by his request. Later that night, a mob of 50 men
       broke into the jail and shot him countless times, leaving him for dead.
