Virginia surgeon John Horace Stevens (1824-1881) married Alabaman Mary Ann Armstrong (1843-1916) on January 26, 1869 in Vienna, Louisiana and the couple relocated to Dallas the following year. Dr. and Mrs. Stevens acquired acreage and a farmhouse west of town in what later became Oak Cliff. After their passing, son Walter developed the farm into the Stevens Park Estates subdivision and adjacent Stevens Park Golf Course in their memory.

"Tejas Warrior" by Allie Victoria Tennant - a beloved treasure at the fairground in Dallas' Fair Park. More about the model, Austin Barbosa, who Tennant used. He was of Mexican parentage and was named Austin Hernandez Barbosa. Barbosa was a Dallas actor, model and athlete. It is unknown exactly how Tennant and Barbosa first became acquainted. Barbosa was likely selected model because he was fit and he also lived and worked in the area. Barbosa was born in Austin around 1909 and his birth name is believed to have been Agustin. His parents were Mariano and Francesca Hernandez Barbosa. Austin was the third of at least seven children (the first to have been born in America) and had moved to Dallas along with some family members between 1920 and 1930.
His father Mariano was working as a barber in his own shop in West Dallas. Unfortunately, Mariano lost his life after being struck by a car near the former Eagle Ford Road and Chihuahua Street on March 4, 1943. Today, Eagle Ford is known as Singleton Blvd and Chihuahua intersects with it about midway between Sylvan and Hampton. A newspaper account of the accident said that Mariano was walking across the street to catch a bus in front of his shop to go home. Francesca predeceased him in 1924 while the family was still living in Austin.
Not a great deal is known about the life and career of Austin Barbosa other than he was an actor, athlete and model. When Austin registered for the draft in World War II, he listed his employer as the Art Institute (probably the Dallas Art Institute) and his next of kin to be his brother, James Philip Barbosa. In 1945, Austin married the former Consuelo Correa. The couple had no children and they lived in Dallas for the rest of their lives. Austin passed away in 1996 and Consuelo passed in 2004. Both are buried in the mausoleum at Calvary Hill Cemetery in Dallas.
