    3. John - Couldn't get your email so am sending this to the list for you. Your small White family is interesting - Gen. TJ Green was at the battle of San Jacinto and died at Blair's Landing in 1864. (See: http://www.lsjunction.com/people2/green.htm and http://www.lsjunction.com/events/jacinto.htm) This piece of history was my Ggrandfather. Years later - my grandfather married into the White family in Texas. Henry C. Green m. Delia Mae Ginn Delia's mother had several last names - but her mother's father was Nazareth White. Talk about coincidences! Have a good evening! Rilla At 01:00 PM 1/30/2000 -0800, you wrote: >Here is another White line that is located in Texas.
