John, Was there a Henry Calhoun White in your group. He would have been my great grandfather's brother. Born about 1837 near Highlands, TX,but moved to Falls, San Saba and a couple of other counties in TX before moving to the Pensacola, FL area. A great grandfather was the last to hear from him about 1890. He was a constable at that time.

Jim, No Henry White. I e-mailed you with four attachments of my Confederate artworks. No response yet. What happened? Did I say something wrong? Being imperfect, I could have easily offended without meaning to.
