    Greetings Y'all! Celebrating the 200th Anniversary of the Texas Rangers

    Solanco, Thank you! I'm originally from PA, and my father claimed Amish heritage...don't know for sure, but my wife and I love visiting the peaceful slower pace of life in the Amish lands and farms east of Lancaster (Bird in Hand, Intercourse, Paradise, etc.) Thanks again!

    Thanks Thomas! Songwriter, not that I am aware of, but Capt Jack Hays was the nephew of Andrew Jackson...so there may be a Virginia connection there....also, both my wife's mother and father were both of Scottish descent, so there may also be a connection there. :) thanks for sharing...stay in...
