Great thread,Amy!..My son has done a lot of searching and I have his work and my mother's when she did her DAR application papers.
I love reading the tales of my father's family from early Texas days best because it all happened near where I grew up.There is a Texas Historical marker on the family cemetary.
One relative was a signee of the Declaration of Independence..He was in Virginia. I should get it all out and look at it again..It's been awhile since I read it.

Happy Warm, Fuzzy Wednesday!!!

Genealogy can be very addicting.
I used to ask my Dad about our family name ..... his stock answer was ...
Go to Jack County, Texas and you will find all the info you want.
I finally made it to Jack County about 10 years ago.
It was wonderful to meet unknown relatives and hear the stories they told.
