Hey Larry, I'm back from a long vacation and I wanted to thank you for your work I see here. I thought the Harris line was with Col. Clark as settlers and recruits. I must have misunderstood. They were with Col. Clark as recruits though, correct? Also, You said in another message I only saw today since my return, that there are three Lonestars in Missouri. It's the Lonestar in Gentry Co., we are after. Thanks for all your work.
