The Sheriffs of Kendall County
The stories of the twenty-two men and one woman who have served as Sheriff of Kendall County, Texas from 1862 to the present reflect the saga of the development of the region from wild frontier to modern urbanization. Using primary sources, family records, personal interviews, and newspaper archives, we have profiled each of these sheriffs and their time in office. These profiles capture a rich and sometimes surprising historical heritage. Our first sheriff was the only Union sympathizer elected sheriff in a Confederate State. We have had the first African American sheriff in Texas since Reconstruction. One of our sheriffs was shot and killed and his wife became the sheriff.
Compiled by The Genealogical Society of Kendall County. Soft cover, 164 pages.

The History of Major Henry Fletcher Kendall (1855-1913) United States Army
Patrick Arthur Patterson was born in Houston, Texas when his parents were living in nearby Sugarland. Patterson received his B.A. and M. Ed degrees from Elmira College in Elmira, NY. He had a twenty-five year career as a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. While an FBI Agent, he served in various locations in the U.S. and abroad working on complex criminal and intelligence investigations. When he retired, he was a member of the Senior Executive Service of the FBI. After his 2005 retirement, he and his wife moved to Boerne, Texas. His life-long interest in history matches well with his life-long genealogical pursuits. When he moved to Boerne, he found much had been written about the Kendall Family which had immigrated to Boerne shortly after Texas' independence from Mexico, but little was published concerning the exploits of their youngest son, Henry Fletcher Kendall. Kendall's activities with the U.S. Cavalry in southwest Texas and Arizona could have been a model for John Wayne's hard-bitten characters found in John Ford's cinematic cavalry trilogy, Ft. Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon and the Rio Grande. Patterson felt compelled to document Kendall's unsung life in the U.S. Cavalry.
