Our own TXGenWeb also has a list of Texas Counties and their member sites: http://www.rootsweb.com/~txgenweb/allcc.htm Joe -----Original Message----- From: mld71124 [mailto:mld71124@dukenet.us] Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 5:24 PM To: TXBELL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [TXBELL] Obituary Lookup/Hooper Try this for a list of counties.

I often refer to the Handbook of Texas Online when I'm trying to locate a county. Just type in the county name, and an article will come up. The first few sentences explain the county's location, county seat, and surrounding counties. It's always a big help to me! http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/ Amanda -----Original Message----- From: mld71124 [mailto:mld71124@dukenet.us] Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 4:24 PM To: TXBELL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [TXBELL] Obituary Lookup/Hooper Try this for a list of counties.
