Alexander Jefferson Patrick

Born Botetourt County , Virginia. And in 1821 was the first Postmaster in the first postoffice in Perry Co. Ky., located at Patricks Salt Works. 1833 he Owned a grist mill and sawmill on Troublesome Creek Ky. He was a member of the Kentucky Legislature for a number of terms,an active member of the Whig Party, a member of the Baptist Church, and a practicing Mason.

Alexander Jefferson Patrick moved to Texas from Perry County Kentucky in 1837 and selected a bluff on the west side of the Trinity River in Robertson County, now Leon County. He laid out a town believing it would be the head of the navagation on the west side of the Trinity.  The city was named Cairo, and is one of the oldest cities in Texas.  He moved his family from Kentucky to Cairo in April 1841.  Later the Indians became so troublesome he moved the family to Old Town Franklin, the county seat of Robertson County.  Mr. Patrick and the other citizens built a fort around a wood school house as a precaution against Indians but it never had to be used.  In 1844 he moved his family back to Cairo, his original home.  In 1850 he returned to civil service and became the Leon County Tax Assessor, and eventually the Leon County Clerk. Cairo still served as the family's home during this period and they lived there until his death on November 18, 1874. His wife preceded him in death by a few years.  Both were buried in the Patrick Plot in Centerville Texas.
