By all means contact Mrs. Martha Hartzog, the current President of the Hood's Texas Brigade Survivor's Association. Her E-Mail is m.hartzog@mail.utexas.edu. If you contact her, I suggest you put Hood's Txas Brigade in the subject line. This active association of descendants (direct and collateral) of members of Hood's Texas Brigade will be glad to hear from you. There is a website for the association.
