BORDER, JOHN PELHAM (1819-1873). John Pelham Border, public official and Confederate
soldier, was born in Lincolnshire, England, on February 19, 1819, the son of William and
Sarah (Mell) Border. He immigrated with his parents to the United States in 1823 and lived
for a time in New York before moving to Texas in 1835 as a surveyor. He first served in
the Texas army from October to December 1835, and participated in the successful Goliad
Campaign of 1835.qv Border enlisted again on April 1, 1836, and joined Capt. William
Kimbro'sqv company at the battle of San Jacinto.qv In 1837 he settled in San Augustine as
a merchant. He was elected county clerk on January 4, 1841, appointed postmaster of San
Augustine in 1842, and made a lieutenant colonel of militia in 1847. He married Catherine
Elizabeth Harding on March 5, 1844; they had six children. At the outbreak of the Civil
Warqv Border raised seven companies in San Augustine, Nacogdoches, Sabine, and Shelby
counties. They were formed together as Border's Battalion, and he was appointed lieutenant
colonel of the unit. The battalion was later joined to another battalion to form Thomas
Scott Anderson'sqv regiment, of which Border was lieutenant colonel. In May 1864 Border
assumed command of Camp Ford, the stockade for federal prisoners. In several postwar
memoirs, he was characterized by former prisoners as a harsh and brutal commandant. After
the war he and his family settled in New Iberia, Louisiana, where he died on June 12,
1873, and was buried in the Protestant Cemetery. In 1887 his widow married Oran Milo
Roberts,qv governor of Texas from 1879 to 1883. Catherine Elizabeth Border Roberts died on
July 21, 1920, and was buried in the State Cemetery,qv Austin.
