Born in South Carolina on 9 August 1809, William Barret Travis will always be remembered as the Texas commander at the Battle of the Alamo . He spent his childhood in Saluda Co., SC, which was also the home of James Butler Bonham, another Alamo defender.
The Blue Topaz on our site, unless otherwise noted, is unfortunately not from the Mason County, Texas area . The production of that material just cannot meet our manufacturing demands and is generally very light blue or clear compared to the deeper Blue Topaz we offer.
