That place is a font of information about the early days, especially the Norwegian settlers. They also have a beautiful painting for their home page that I really wanted to grab. But I'm not looking for a lawsuit.

Coincidence upon coincidence!<br /><br />I found a pdf of Dr. Pool's remarkable history. Would love to own a print copy.<br /><br />I forgot to add my banner. Sorry. I'll be sure to do that next month. Oh, you can find out about Druids past and present on my website and/or blog. I wrote a series of articles about them last year, which are in the archives.<br />http://texasdruids.com<br />http://texasdruids.blogspot.comLyn Hornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596495172490672271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1822452633282744192.post-70101306275786724132012-09-20T10:14:33.847-05:002012-09-20T10:14:33.847-05:00Nice post, Lyn.

My grandfather--my daddy's father--was born in Meridian but moved to Palo Pinto county where he married my grandmother. <br />I've written posts about Charles Goodnight and Oliver Loving--more than one! I find them a fascinating pair.<br />As yet, I haven't figured out what a druid is...but I will! The excerpt was very good, nicely descriptive of the ranch. I do love this sort of thing.<br />Oh, and about the history of Bosque County--written by William C. Pool. Dr. Pool taught at Southwest Texas State University (now Texas State) when my husband was there. And I taught at San Marcos Academy where Dr. Pool's wife, Jeanette Pool taught math.<br />Lot of connections, there. So, that provided more interest for me.<br /><br />One thing you might do with your next post--put you name at the top of the post--not in the subject line--but at the first of the post, so readers will know who wrote it right away. I use a banner--now that I learned to make simple ones--or you can just put By Lyn Horner.<br />Nice post!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272417114895975742noreply@blogger.com
