Jal, Lea County, New Mexico is the only town in Lea County named for a cattle brand. It was founded in 1910 by Charles Wesley Justis, a native of Virginia.

Charles Wesley Justis was appointed the first postmaster on July 6, 1910. In March 1916 Justis moved the post office and mercantile store to a watering place of the JAL Ranch commonly referred to as Mule Shoe Wells, located six miles west.

A small 12-by-14-foot wood-frame schoolhouse was built near the Justis store, six miles east of present-day Jal, in 1911. The first teacher was James LeRoy Lancaster who taught about twelve pupils from March 1911 until June that year. On October 23, 1911, he married one of his students, Buena Vista Justis, a daughter of the town's founder.

Robert Wann (1792) is first mentioned in 1814 tax lists of Wayne Co., Kentucky. He, his brothers Joshua Wann and Edward Wann appear in the Wayne Co. tax lists through 1819 but not in 1820. It is presumed that they were the first of the family to leave Kentucky for the new state of Alabama. However, Joshua was in Rhea Co., Tennessee for a time as that is where he married Lydia Collins (5 August 1820). Robert had to be in Alabama by 1824 as that is the year listed for the birth of his son William, who was born in Alabama. (Jackson Co. census of 1870).

Robert was the first of several of his family to receive land grants in Jackson County (see land grants on page XI and map on page XII - editor's note: See "Family Scrapbook" by Evelyn Nance Pyles for copies of land grants and map). The purchases were made from the General Land Office in Huntsville, Alabama. The property was located North of Fackler, Alabama along what is now the Southern Ry.

Rachel Poe - Abstracts of Wills of Wayne County, Kentucky - Sarah Poe - Page 10 - Names daughter Rachel Wann and sons Alexander and David Poe with the "rest of the estate to be divide amongst my six sons and youngest daughter, Peggy". Names "Reuben Simpson and Joseph Beck to be guardians to my children". Ex., Philemon Payne, Wit. William Wann Sr., Robert Wann and William Wann Jr. Written 15 May 1814.

Robert and Rachel Wann were dismissed, by letter, from the Friendship Primitive Baptist Church (near Fackler, Al.) in April 1850. The census of 1850 was set to begin on June 1st and Robert and Rachel do not appear in the Jackson County, Alabama census of that year. It is believed they moved to Arkansas, possibly with their son, Samuel McGown Wann, but no record of that is known to exist. This left only three Wann families in Jackson Co., Al., in 1850. They were, (1) 1812 William Wann (son of Edward) and father of A. J. Wann, (2) (1824) William Wann (son of 1792 Robert Wann) father of William Andrew Jackson Wann), and (3) Joshua Wann Sr., the younger brother of 1824 William Wann.

She was 80 years old and a resident of Carolan, Logan Co., Arkansas. She states at the time of Samuel's death he was 48 years, four months and 24 days old.

Martha states that her son recorded this just as she told him. Soon after the destruction of the original bible, her son rerecorded the last record in another bible [the one presented for this affidavit]. There was no way of knowing when the bible was published as it was worn out from "long use." "She says her son who wrote the record is dead. This I believe to be true as gospel." Bible Record 27 Nov. 1898.

After Samuel's death, Martha filed a Claim of Widow for Bounty Land on 30 March 1896, under act approved Marc 3, 1855. She claimed she was a resident of Carolan, Arkansas. She requests that her Land Warrant be sent in care of S. T. Carolan. This was witnessed by R. S. Foster and R. Godwin. The proof of his service is of record and on file under pension no. 6440.

Martha had no life insurance. Death occurred 7 April 1909. She resided with Savannah and Ransom Godwin. Death caused by Lagripp [influenza] complicated with pneumonia. Nursing was a necessity and Savannah provided it herself.

Physician was R. S. Foster. Attested by:O. L. Yarborough, Matta Peck.
Martha left only $5.00 when she died. This was paid towards her Funeral. She had no real estate when she died. She paid no rent. She died in the home of Ransom and Savannah Godwin, and was buried in Ione, Arkansas. Debts: Dr. R. S. Foster - $10.00; J. T. Walker - $10.50 (making coffin) J. W. Methvin - $9.18 (clothing for burial) Total - $29.68.
