Angus, The below site resulted from a search and all appear to be about the Hurricane in Galveston in 1909. Is it possible that your hurricane was not in 1907, but in 1909. These are all articles in the Houston Post and I have no idea where you may find the archives. As you may or may not know, the Houston Post is no longer in existence. It was bought by the Houston Chronicle a number of years ago. It may be that Clayton Genealogical Library in Houston may have copies. Or perhaps at the University of Texas.
