Description

Born in Bryan, Texas, Eula Frances Dunn (1908-1995) spent most of her adult life in San Antonio, where she married Wesley Peacock, Jr. She assisted in the administration of the Peacock Military Academy, the school for boys founded by her husband's father, and was a member of many local groups.

Consisting of genealogical research material, some personal papers, photographs, scrapbooks, and artifacts, the Eula Frances Dunn Peacock Papers provide detailed documentation of several early Texas families. The most extensive series in the papers is made up genealogical material, including correspondence with other researchers, family papers, and collected documentation on several individuals and families. A few original family documents, such as Bible pages and printed items are found here. Genealogical material is particularly detailed for the Dunn, Killough, Mixon, Parker, and Wheelock families.
