Enough material there to write your own War & Peace, Lightning. Takes patience for a person to research their family tree and find the desired info. Interesting find you have found here. Thank you for sharing.

good stuff, L-rod.
confession: whenever i hear the expression 'family tree,' i think of that dangerfield one-liner... 'i looked up my family tree, found out i was the sap'...
"it tasted like time in liquid form steeped through the Great Plains, a rich tea of buffalo hooves and indian flint dripped slowly through the capillaries..." love that poetic big picture compression. nice.The pool was in the shape of a keyhole and I would lie belly down on the warm concrete slab and watch the icy water flow from the heart of the earth. I would put my face in the churning pool and drink what had fallen as rain centuries before. It had a soft taste and a texture that made it feel almost thick and nutritious. It tasted like time in liquid form steeped through the Great Plains, a rich tea of buffalo hooves and indian flint dripped slowly through the capillaries of the Ogallala Aquifer which runs all the plumbing in the Hill Country.
