Through a Vanished Odessa: Haynes-Quagle Mail Route

A chronology of postmasters and a postmistress ... who guarded the mail as it passed through a faded stage and station, passed into memory and stamped into a Texas Historical Marker:

"Site of first Post Office in Wise County: Odessa

"Established Sept. 8, 1855. First white settler in Wise County, Benjamin B. Haney, was the first postmaster. Second was Martha E. Marshall, appointed Dec. 5, 1856; third, Nathan Huff, served from march 16, 1860, until office was discontinued on Dec. 5, 1866.

"David C. Haynes and William Quagle, contractors, brought mail every Saturday by the stagecoach from Birdville (25 mi. SE), arriving Odessa 12:00 noon. Stayed at George Wilmouth Inn, arriving in Birdville 8:00 p.m.

"Second post office, Newark, opened 1893, after another Odessa was founded in Ector County (1967)."

Was George Wilmouth kin to the family of the same surname just to the northeast in Collin County? Where exactly was his inn (barring footwork, which I have not yet done)?

Thanks should someone have the answers already!
