This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wYRBAIB/325.1.1 Message Board Post: I have only sketchy info on George Teel before he came to Texas. I will contact the person who wrote the bio for the Texas Handbook to see if she has additional info. He supposedly was in Tennessee or Missouri and left due to the earthquakes, then left Austin's Colony due to the weather. He was married to Nancy Coldwell.They had a child, Rachel, in 1816. I hope to fence the cemetery and repair/replace the markers as well as obtain a Texas State Historical Marker for the cemetery. Of course I am hoping to get donations from descendants as the cost will come to around $5000. Thanks for your response. You may contact me direct at sarahm51@houston.rr.com if you wish.
