Bogart Family History Aiken Caldwell Bogart was bom February 13, 1854 near Nashville, Tennessee. He was the youngest of 13 children and the only one to come to Texas. When Aiken was 21, he moved to Texas with his Aunt Mary de Brazil Davis. On June 1, 1870, Aiken Caldwell Bogart marred Lucy Hannah Wroe and the resided in the Winchester area. Lucy Hannah Wroe was born in Wilson County, near Knoxville, Tennessee, September 10, 1855. She was the youngest of 7 children. In 1859 the Wroe family moved to Fayette County, Texas, at the instigation of her mother's half-brother James S. Lester, who took part in the Texas Revolution. There were seven children born to Lucy and Aiken: Hiram; b.1880; d. age 9 months Earnest Caldwell; b. April 1882 Baby (unnamed); died at birth, approximately 1884 Lester Caroline; b. May 1886 William Henry; b. March 1889 Lallah Marguerite; b. February 1891 Maude; b. January 1893 On December 31 1908, Lucy and Aiken purchased 158-acre plot in the Northeast quarter of Tarrant County. This became known as the "old home place" and is located in the community known today as Colleyville. Lucy and Aiken's son William Henry moved his family to the "old home place" into a small home a short distance from Lucy and Aiken's home. William Henry imported a prize jersey bull from the Jersey Tsles and set about raising a dairy heard and establishing a dairy farm utilizing some of the "old home place" property and the properties he had purchased. When Lucy became very ill, Aiken and Lucy moved in with their son William Henry and his family. Lucy died in 1929, just six months after their 50`h wedding anniversary. Aiken continued to live with his son for two more years until he died in 1931. In 1935 William Henry bought the 158 acres making up the "old home place" from the A.C. Bogart heirs. The state put in Grapevine Highway splitting the property making it necessary to have a cattle crossing to allow the cows' access from some of the pastures to the barn. The dairy continued until 1956, when William Henry died. William Henry had started a bottling plant, four farms and a total herd of 800 plus cows. Part of this property remained in the hands of the Bogart family until March 1981, when the last of the property was sold. r Grantor: A.B.ahivers,loined by ~y wise R.FI.Shivers, and son J.7q.Shivers,the sole hear of V.A.Shiners,deaeased, (~igrted) A.H.3hivera R .

Ile was the youngest of 13 cluldren and the only one to come to Texas. Because of the Civil War he did not receive the college education that his older brothers did, and after he grew up, he worked on the raihoad iu Tem~essee. When he was 21 lus Aunt, Mary de Brazil Davis, weal back to "fennessee from 7 esus and persuaded him to return to "texas with her. Kennedy's Mill, out Isom Winchester and Wardu, seemed to be a colony ofTetmesseans. Aiken married Lucy Ilannah Wroe on June 1, 1879 and they resided in the Winchester area. Aiken came from a Presbyterian background, the "no-cooking on Sunday" kiid. 1 le was named fur two Presbyterian miiisters. SU•angely enough he did not joir [he church until he was about 45: perhaps because there was not a Presbyterian Church it Winchester. One was finally organized, hr was a charter member and one of the first three elders. "1'he other two being Dr. Philip Chapman. who later moved to Snuthlield and )vli-. Clint Thomas. Lucy used to tell that Aiken worked iu a gin and he could be heard for blocks cussing the Negro help, but when he joined the church, he turned over a new Icaf and never cursed again. Aiken had a natural talent for nursing and always said if he could have, he would have been a doctor. As it was, whenever anyone in the area got sick, they would send for Aiken and he would stay for days or longer to nurse them. Lucy was born in Wilson County, near Knoxville, Tennessee, September 10, 1 855. She was the youngest of seven d~ildren. The family were all Baptists. In 1859 they came to Texas, Fayette County, at the instigation other mother's halt=brother, ,lames S. Lester, who took part in thr 'I csas Revolution. They lived at or near Kennedy's Nlill and her parents arc buried there. "the graves arc no longer to be located, and probably have long ago beeu plowed under. Living ii Winchester, Texas, close to LaC;rangc, there were seven children burn to Lucy and Aiken: I liratn (named for her father, b. 1880; d. age 9 mos. >Larnest Caldwell; b. 2S Apr ] 882 13aby (ututanted); died at birth, probably 1884 ~L.ester Caroline; (named Ibr Aiken's Mother and Luc}'~s Mother/surname); 6.4 May 1886 William I leery; b. March 1889 1 ;~ r h i Lallah Marguerite; b. I~eb 1891 ~ Maude; b. Jan 1893 Revision B August ] 999 Aiken became dissatisfied with the area because ofihe large Gcrutatt population established there. So, he decided to relocate his lamily to Tarrant County. Ile traveled to Tarrant County alone and arranged the purchase of a parcel of land with a rather tally house on it. When 16e Tamil}' joined him just before Christmas of 1908 and saw where he was movutg tttent, they were most uttltappy with his choice. He quickly looked around for something they would find more suitable. He found a 158 acre plot in the Northeast quarter ofTarraut County, which he Fuld Lucy purchased on the 31" of DeceFnber 1908. This became known as the `bid home place" and is located in the conunuuily known today as Colleyville, Texas. Aiken and his family set about fanttittg the property, raising feed crops. This land was originally issued by the State oCI'exas on hebruary 18, 1878, to Naucy B. l.ouncy via a 1 GO acre land patent. It allowed 2 of the acres to be used for a pioneer county school, the Pleasant Kun School. This school was established in 1870 and continued to hold classes without interruption through the 1962-1963 school year. William H. Bogart was 21 years old at the tone they moved to Tarrattt Cowtly. He helped with the farm Also, to earn cash to buy land, he worked at a lumber company in the Poly area of Pt. Worth. l le had acquired almost 100 acres by the time he was 30 years old. Effie I{ulledge was born in Forney, Texas; east of Dallas, near Mesquite. Her faFnily moved to Grapevutc where she met Wi1liaFn 1I. and they married on the 29"' of March 1917. William was 30 years oCage and EITic was 20 years old. Apparently, William itttroduccd L(lie's sister, Prankic, to Clifford Clary, sho also worked with at the lumber company. ClilTurd and Frankic married on I I November 1920_ William aFtd E1Tic set up housckeepirtg at Poly and 2 children were born there; BID and CoriFwe. Sometime at the early 20's William moved his family out to the old home place info a small house a shoe distance tram Aiken and Lucy's house. William uuported a prize Jersey bull Crum the Jersey isles and set about raising a dairy heard and establishing a dairy farm utilizutg some of the old honk place property and the properties he had purchased. 1[e cootutued purchasatg "farrant County land whenever he could. Lester Pearl, granddaughter to Aiken and Lucy, was sent to live with them when her mother died ul the flue epidemic in 1920. Lester Pearl was 6 years old. Audrey, Ernest Caldwell Bogart's daughter, rcntembers her lamily muvutg to the Cullcyvillc area in 1917, livhtg there till 1921. Audrey aucndcd 2"~ 3rd and 4'h grades at the Pleasant Kun School Sue Lou Corbin, another of Elbe's sisters, was one other school teachers. Lester Pearl later taught 1 year at the Pleasant run School, around 1934-1935. In 1927 William and his family moved into the Riverside area of FL Worth and established the Gulden Gate Dairy. Charles and Sac (twins) were lxxn the next year. Lucy becantc very ill and bulb Aiken and Lucy moved in with William and his fantily_ Lucy died in 1929,-just 6 months after their 50"' Atwiversary. Aiken lived in town with William and his lamily 2 more years until he died in 193 1. Aiken :ntd Lucy arc buried in the "L3ogarl" family plat in Grapevine, 'l~exas. Revision i3 August 1999 In 1935 William Bogart bought the 158 acres making up the old home place from the A.C. [3ugart heirs. In .... The State put in Grapevute Highway splitting the property making it necessary to Lave a cattle crossutg to allow the cows access Isom some of the pastures to the bast. The dairy continued until 1956 when William Bogart died. He had put together a bottling plant, 4 fauns and a total herd of ..... cows. Parts of this property remained ut the hands of the Bogart Catttily until March 198 t when the last of the property (Utat were the houses were located) was sold. As of the 1990 census, Colleyville's population was counted at approxitttately 18,000. The growth of the area during the 1990's has been drastic and the 2000 census will certai~ily be a lot higher. "I~hat area toda}- (1999) is beutg held by the Merman Smith Estate for development as the civic and cu{tural center of Colleyville. GRAPEVINE Grapevute, Texas was the closest "town" to the oW home place in the early years and was utilircd by the family fur busiucss, worship and recreation. 'The town ufCirapevine was incorporated in 1907. with Bart Starr as the first Mayor. In 1940 the populaliott was 1,043 and by 1988 had utcreascd lu 26,400. The earliest wagon trains to bring selt}ers to the Grape Vine Prairie arrived as early as 1844. Thal same year Sam Houston and connttissioners representing the Republic of Texas met with members ul' the Comanche, heeclti, Waco, Delaware and several other Indian tribes at Tah-Wah-Karru Creek, also known as Grape Vine sprutgs, and signed a treaty of peace, friendship and contnterce. This treaty was signed by the President of the Texas Republic, Anson Jones, on February S, 1884. Ouc of the interpreters participating ut this treaty was Jesse Cltisohn for whom the Chisohn'frail was named. The town was named Grapevine due to its location on Grape Vute Prairie, near Grape Vine Spruill, so called for the-abundantly growutg mustang grapes in the area. The Cotton Belt Raih•uad extended to the town in 1888 and helped the small farming commwtity to grow. Early residents wet-e attracted by the abundance of good cheap land. Cotlou soon became a major cash crop. Today the cottununity of Grapevute bas expanded to art estiutated population of over 40,000. "Chic is mostly due to the close proxunity to the Dallas/Ft. Worth [ntentalional Au-port and the attraction of international busutess interests to the entire Dallas/1't. Worth Metroplcx. COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS, is located in northeast Tarrant County. Although settlers began to arrive in the area possibly as early as the mid 1840s, there were barely enough residents for Colleyville to qualify as a village when it was incorporated in 1956 Today an estimated 19,250 people live within its approximate 12 square miles. Spring Garden appears to be one of the earliest established settlements in the Colleyville area. Samue] Cecil Holiday Witten, a Ivfissouri native, came to Texas to survey for a land grants company. He liked what he saw and soon brought his family and settled near today's intersection of Cheek-5parger and Jackson roads. This community prospered for at least IS years. During that time Methodist and Church of Christ congregations are known to have met there along with the Pleasant Run Grange #891. At it's height the Spring Garden School had students attend from as far away as Collin and Jack counties. All the activities known to the Spring Garden Community may have been housed in the same building but the out of "town" studems boarded with the school teacher. This community fell into decline when the Spring Garden School building burned. Other early community centers of the area were Pleasant Glade, Pleasant Run and Bransford. Each of these communities had its own church, school and general store. Pleasant Run and Bransford also had a United States Post Office. This Post Office was located at Pleasnt Run until 1888 when it was relocated at Bransford. In 1914 George Couch and his son, Walter, opened a general store at the intersection of West Glade Road and the old Ft Worth to Grapevine Cardinal Road. It was at this store that Colleyville was born, although it was not incorporated until ] 956 .
