2007 Celebration to rededicate the Peyton Robert's grave.
Peyton Robert's (a slave owned by Jeremiah Roberts) new headstone that
was designed by Lawrence Coffee, President of the Peyton Colony
Historical
Society. It was made in Fredericksburg at the small stone carving shop on the east side of FB across from Walmart. (Sorry I don't remember the name. But know the owner donated some of her work.) My husband and I donated a check for the amount Lawrence told us the headstone was going to cost. The covered wagon and mules represent the wagon, and mules given to Peyton Roberts when he was freed in Caldwell County by Jeremiah Robert's son, John Roberts and they came to Blanco and began the freedman's colony known as Peyton Colony. Sent by Dr. Ann Hall <hall@texas-skies.com> Photo: Lawrence Coffee (right) and preacher at the
re-dedication ceremony in October 2007
The people
learned to use Lime to build houses. I have pictures of the lime
kiln today that is on RR165 and the text from the now stolen Historical
Marker if you want those.

(Wife and children below) From the SAN ANTONIO EXPRESS - Jul 29 1979: Living Decendants of the Peyton Colony still live on land that Peyton Roberts settled with 8 other families freed more than 100 years ago. At first there were 600 acres but the land grew into 6,000 acres as freed slaves traveled to the Peyton Colony. Peyton was first owned by Jeremiah Roberts, who came from England in 1645 to America. Jeremiah Roberts gave Peyton to one of his sons who in turn passed the gift slave on to William Roberts, a grandson, who freed Peyton along with 8 other families in 1836. Left with no help, Roberts persuaded his former slaves to continue working for him until 1865. He then worked with the US Government to find land for the former slaves. The freed slaves traveled by oxcart for many months before they reached the land which was to be home for them and their descendants. Note: A. Jones is not sure if the wife of Peyton is buried at the cemetery or not.
