It's hard to believe that in such a short time she seems so much older, but I guess the same goes for Jadyn.

The Battle of Richmond?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaybird-Woodpecker_War

Named after Richmond, England, the town is rich with Texas history as it was among the 19 cities first incorporated by the short-lived Republic of Texas, in 1837. Early residents of the city include many prominent figures in Texas lore such as Jane Long, Deaf Smith, and Mirabeau Lamar. On 16 August 1889, the town was the site of the Battle of Richmond, an armed fight culminating the Jaybird-Woodpecker War, a violent feud over post-Reconstruction political control of Fort Bend County.

That's interesting history we were never taught in school!
