Traveling by wagon train, John Brandon, his wife Martha (cousin of Kit Carson) and six sons
left Mississippi and arived at Fort Brooke (Tampa) in 1857. John aquired land in what now is
Brandon. They worked the land until tragedy struck when Johns beloved wife died in 1867.
John moved away and in 1868 married Victoria Varn a widow with two children. In 1874 they
moved back to New Hope (Brandon) and established their homested. John helped start the first
