Here is my response to the WHITE query. It did not get printed in previous msg. Gene Lynch Subj: Whites in Bowie Co, TX Date: 00-11-05 11:05:32 EST From: HELynch To: [email protected] Some of your WHITE family married my HOLLEY families. Two of the sons of Thomas Monore White and Martha Olivia "Lee" Haris married Holleys. They were Richard Rex who married Illie Jane Holley (no children) and Charles Thomas White who married Elizabeth Azeline "Addie" Holley (I have all their descendants) According to the info I have, Thomas Monroe White was a son of Benjamin White who was a long time resident of Bowie Co.
