As a student of place names in gepgraphical context it is always a pleasure to find someone of like interest.

[Joel Merrill]

Have you ever noticed that a lot of names in the south west are Spanish names and only the locals can pronounce of spell them and a lot of names in the north are Indian names and only the locals can pronounce or spell them

You all can even visit Rhonesboro, the "Possum Capital of East Texas."

We live about 9 miles from Rhonesboro, but we don't claim any connection there.:basic05

Waxahachie, or
Mexia
