Castles Palestine, Texas only living spy of Confederacy Price, Fifty Cents May, 1912 This is the front cover. I only have a photo copy of the book.. there were not many printed from what i am told. Not sure if you will find any around. I only know of possibly 3 out there.. one is in Texas with a distant cousin, one is in Roy Acuff's family, and i think there is one in the Smithsonian. My sister had one that I had used when i was in high school to do a report on. The book came up missing after her death.. Not sure where it is now. If you want any specifics you can e-mail me at t.schuetze@comcast.net We can communicate easier then and not have to wait for the posts to come up. glad I can help. I will ask a favor in return, please let me know of any connections you make with this.. I have not been able to do this on my own for a number of reasons, but have wanted to see how far i could trace it and how many branches there were.. All of the Elders in the family are now gone including my mother who was a Castle..so there are no others to ask questions of.. I hope! this helps and feel free to contact me anytime.
