About Sarah Prudence Musgrave
Prudence Walker, daughter of Joseph and Mary Walker, born in Texas, married Bennett Musgrave and became the mother of several outlaws, members of the High Five Gang (A.K.A. Black Jack Gang). Her son George West Musgrave has been called "Last of the Old West Outlaws.".
In November 19, 1863, Joe Walker's daughter, Sarah Prudence "Prudie" Walker, married Bennett Musgrave in Live Oak County, Texas, uniting two of the Brush Country's pioneer families. In early 1869, Calvin Musgrave deeded 160 acres of land on Metate Creek to Bennett and Prudie, which the young couple used as the foundation of a successful real estate and livestock career. By 1870, they possessed land and livestock valued at six thousand dollars.
Despite financial setbacks, the Bennett Musgrave family lived comfortably on their St. Rocky Ranch during the later 1870s. Under the watchful eye of Watson Stanfield, Musgrave's foreman, Bennett's stock grazed on some thirty-five hundred acres of land; the family ranked among Atascosa County's more prosperous and respected citizens. George West Musgrave joined the family on May 27, 1877?° It was a propitious time to be born. (1)
