In 1870's Green Berry's nephew George Ketchum (son of James) moved to Tom Green county, Texas several miles south and slightly west of Knickerbocker, Texas. In late 1884 Green Berry moved his ranch to the same place. He prospered, and in
1903 he bought a ranch 9 miles west of Sheffield, Pecos County, Texas. The ranch was several thousand acres of land. He was known to raise and sell good quality race horses and working horses. After his death a large oil/gas field was
discovered on the land and the family became even more prosperous. The ranch location included land desecribed as Abstract #5170 - Survey 34 TCRR A2- Pecos county, Texas as well as Abstracts 5154, 5170, 5171, 5389, 5521, 6256, 6348, 6349, 6420,

In 1901, Frank Hamer and his brother Harrison moved to Sheffield, Texas. They had been hired as wranglers on the Pecos Ranch of Barry Ketchum. The Hamer brothers were still working on the ranch on April 26, 1901when Berry's brother "Black
Jack" was hung in Clayton, NM. Frank Hamer went on to be a famous Texas Ranger. Though best known as the man who tracked and killed the infamous Bonnie and Clyde, Frank Hamer accomplished much more than this one crime indicates. He is the man
that many believe to be the greatest Texas Ranger of the first half of the twentieth century.--B. Spradley
