The Homestead Act promised free land to those who would settle in the West.
In 1832, Sam Houston left his Cherokee family to seek new opportunities and align himself with the burgeoning American settlement in Texas. He was drawn by the promise of land and the chance to play a significant role in the region's political landscape. Houston's desire to reconnect with his American roots and his ambition to participate in the independence movement against Mexican rule also motivated his decision to move to Texas.

The former slaves who served in the army did not receive the land promised by General Sherman due to a combination of political and social factors. After the Civil War, President Andrew Johnson reversed Sherman's Special Field Order No. 15, which had allocated land to freed slaves. This decision, influenced by Southern interests and the desire to restore the antebellum social order, left many former soldiers without the promised land and economic opportunity. As a result, the hopes of these veterans for land ownership and independence were largely unfulfilled.
