I live just 3 miles south of north sulphur, and the way it runs check out the dial community which isn't too far from petty. Some of these towns no longer exist, noble isn't far from the dial turn off, but north sulphur runs close to dial and someone in that little community might know exactly where you are talking about.Fannin co. separates pecan gap from delta co., and little farther up is the lamar co. line. There used to be an old railroad running the length of the river, no longer there but the bed is. That's all I know and the only way to be able to tell you. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Sep 1, 2005 12:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [TXLAMAR] David Baird & Family lost graves This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
