I ain't a Texan. I have very little knowledge of Texas history. But there are a couple of things in this thread that puzzle me.

>No, ol Sam came to Texas in 1832. He was the Gov and gave up his seat in 1829 as I recall. This is all a strange tale.<

Is there a typo there, or am I missing something?

And then the reference to "The Yellow Rose of Texas". Only yellow rose of Texas I'm aware of is a quadroon prostitute in a song. What are you talking about?
