Faye, I don't live in Texas, but my mothers whole family was from Bristol, a little town just outside of Ennis. So do a lot of reseach for there as well as go to the anual "Old Bristol Families Reunion". I will be there from the end of May until mid June this year. I live in Az and get over to the Mesa Family History Center at least once a week. They have all the census and a lot of other info right there. Don't have to send for it, makes it easy! Dian
