Larry -- Do you have any idea where the idea that William's children were brought to Texas by his brothers came from? I thought John Beatty had obtained that information from you -- but obviously I am wrong. In the draft of generation 6, we have it that William and his wife died in Muhlenberg County -- any idea of the source for that?
