Below is a "link" to a Rootsweb WorldConnect pedigree chart showing that Thomas Sumpter Bishop's father-in-law, James Graham Sams, died in 1911 at Burdette Wells. As such, it certainly is a distinct possibility that Thomas Pemberton Bishop was indeed the "Capt. T.B. Bishop" who ran the hotel & spa at Burdette Wells in Caldwell Co., Texas. Hope this might help!
