    New to the Forum

    By way of introduction, I'm a retired deputy sheriff living in the boondocks of northeast Texas. There are a couple of old wells on our property, and we've been told that one of them was at the site of an old one-room school building. The oldest topo map I've found of the area is from 1910...
