CHAPTER III - WATCHES, MILK AND BUTTER
continued...
Henry Lee Borden, his eldest son, arrived in town the next year and in 1877, became the local superintendent of the condenser. Born and raised in Texas, he had led a rancher's life, and during the Civil War served as a Confederate cavalry officer. One of the chief heirs of his father's fortune, Borden helped organize the Elgin Lumber Company and was elected president of the Home National Bank. As generous as he was wealthy, he donated a new and more ornamental fountain to replace the original. A pillar of the Episcopal Church, an abstainer from alcoholic spirits, he and his wife, Laura, were among the town's most respected social leaders. Then in January 1883, at the age of fifty, Henry Lee Borden quietly left for New York to pursue an affair with a nineteen-year-old soprano, the daughter of a local shoemaker. He was divorced and lost to Elgin, but he later rose to the presidency of all Borden operations in the United States.
Information from Archie Colburn to T.Mason on 24 May 2008. "She apparently married someone named Johnson and appears on the 1870 census in Colorado County, TX as Laura J. Johnson, 24, with the family of Fred and Mattie Barnard. Martha Bernard was a first cousin of Laura."
"You can access the deed records and the marriage records of Fort Bend County, TX, through the Fort Bend site on USGenweb. There is an affidavit of heirship in 1894 which refers to Laura as being Mrs. Newman. There is a deed dated 13 Jul 1894 from Laura Newman to her son, George Sidney Johnson dated 13 Jul 1894. Another deed shows her married to John Newman in 1919. I did see one deed from Albert George and Charles R. George (brothers of Laura) to H. Lee Borden dated 30 Apr 1878 in Fort Bend County."

2404. Judge Sidney Gail Borden
HYPERLINK: [ http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/articles/BB/fboae.html ]
Sidney Gail Borden, businessman and local official, son of Mary Susan (Hatch) and John Pettit Borden, was born on March 15, 1846, in Richmond, Texas, moved to San Patricio County as a youth with his family, and settled in the Ingleside area. His mother was the daughter of George Hatch. John P. Borden, a brother of Gail Borden, Jr., registered the brand J6 on August 26, 1856, in San Patricio County. Sidney joined the Confederate forces at nineteen and served on the Rio Grande with Capt. A. C. Jones in local skirmishes.
After the war Borden returned to San Patricio County and engaged in a number of ranching and business enterprises. He founded the riverport of Sharpsburg in the early 1870s. With D. C. Rachal he purchased a schooner, the Nueces Valley, to transport merchandise to his store, S. G. Borden Mercantile, at Sharpsburg. Wool, hides, cotton, and wine were shipped out of the port. Borden developed vineyards near Hart's Lake and shipped a white wine, Sharpsburg's Best, and a red wine, Rachal's Choice, throughout South Texas. Borden and Rachal built the first cotton gin in the area in the early 1880s. In addition to his wine, gin, ranch, and shipping businesses Borden operated a Nueces River ferry that was the primary link for Nueces County travelers heading north. He also operated a meat packery on the river near Sharpsburg. In partnership with two other men, he developed town and farm lots in Sharpsburg, which became the largest community in the county.
Borden was elected justice of the peace in 1871 and named county judge in 1881. He served through 1888 and again for a short time in 1897-98. He was appointed county surveyor in 1895 and was postmaster at Sharpsburg from 1883 until the post office was moved to Angelita in 1908. He built the first telephone line in the county, from Sharpsburg to Corpus Christi, a distance of twenty miles; this line served the entire area, especially to summon medical aid. Borden married Mary G. Sullivan on December 28, 1876. He died at his home in Sharpsburg on January 31, 1908, and is buried in the Rose Hill Cemetery in Corpus Christi. The Bordens had six children.

Named for an early area sheep rancher, the town of Sharpsburg grew into a regional trade center in the 1870's when Sidney Gail Borden (d. 1908) operated a general store, cotton gin, grist mill, and grape vineyards; bought a meat packery; and expanded an existing ferry business on the Nueces River.
Flat bottomed sailing vessels allowed goods to be shipped on the Shallow River to markets including Corpus Christi. With processing and transportation facilities in place, Borden platted the town of Sharpsburg and sold lots, attracting several hundred settlers. Stores, a post office, a school, and a boardinghouse were also established.
Farmers from towns as far away as twenty-five miles came to Sharpsburg to process their goods and ship them to area markets.
Sharpsburg's growth peaked in the 1890's. Bypassed by the railroads, its population declined steadily. In 1912 Sharpsburg's school was consolidated with the Odem school district and closed, and in 1913 a bridge was constructed at the Ferry site.
Though the town is no longer in existence and its site is again part of an area ranch, Sharpsburg and Borden's ferry remain an important part of early San Patricio County history.
In 1920 census in Paul McDermott's family.
