John Crittenden Duval (1816-1897) was an American writer of Texas literature. He has been noted as being the first Texas man of letters 1] and was dubbed the "Father of Texas Literature" by J. Frank Dobie. 2] His Early Times in Texas was initially published serially in 1867 in Burke's Weekly (Macon, Georgia) and was finally published in book form in 1892. The story, which became a Texas classic, recounted Duval's escape from the Goliad Massacre, in which his own brother Burr H. Duval was killed, as well as other tales. Another brother, Thomas Howard DuVal, was a distinguished Texas judge. The men's father, William Pope Duval, was a long-time Territorial Governor of Florida.
