I would like to invite everyone to visit my newest page, "The Evolution of a State or Recollections of Old Texas Days". On this site I have indexed the above classic Texas book, written by Noah Smithwick, originally published in 1900. (I hate books that aren't indexed, don't you!) In this book he mentions a multitude of early settlers in the Republic & early state of Texas. http://www.rootsweb.com/~txrusk/RecOldTx.html Thanks! Bonnie
