The marker says:
Purchased in 1861 by Elkanah Bamblitt, this property, called a woodright, is a timbered parcel of land to provide wood for shelter, cooking, and heat, which remained in the Bamblitt family over 122 years. It was never used for anything but the original intent. The Bamblitt family continued to own the property until purchased by Dallas County in 1983. It is now a part of the Elm Fork Nature Preserve. 1995
