Kevin, Thanks for the Tulare Library web site. We use to pack a lunch and drive up for the day, but worked through lunch and eat on the way home. Did not want to waste research time. I will have to drive up some Sat. Green is married in to my husband's line. His great grandmother's sister was Flora McIntosh Green. I believe she was the one who was shot off her horse at Texanna in about 1926 (No, I don't have her confused with Belle Star):) One on her daughters, Georgia, married Arlie Strome. My sister has a connection with the Strome line.
