Greg:
I was hoping you might respond to my inquiry; I had looked for your contact information to discuss this with you privately before deciding the best way was to just post the question. I would like to explore any ideas you might have about ways to make a more convincing argument that this is "our" flag. In particular, I wonder if a DNA test might be performed on the bloodstain to tie it to a descendant of one of the two men who are connected with the Texas flag's history. I don't know what kind of evidence Georgia is asking of us, but it seems to me that if we could do something like this it would meet any standard of proof. I hope you will have further thoughts.
If you don't mind, please correspond with me off-list so that I can have your e-mail address. I am at r-james@tamu.edu.
Best regards,
Ray
