FORGOTTEN FEUDIST
ANOTHER CHAPTER IN
TUMLINSON HISTORY TEXAS PIONEER GENEAOLGY
IS LYING ON SOME DEALER’S SHELF
Folks, study on the first family of Texas – the Tumlinson’s- led me to this fascinating history of the Taylor-Sutton feud. This covers the killings and fights, murders and lynching of several Texas pioneer families. Frankly, I had never heard the story but, simply put, without all the varnish – it is a treasure of genealogical history not found in the normal ancestor books. It is entitled:
FORGOTTEN FEUDIST
and author Chuck Parson – one of best western writers – does a Herculean effort to write old and record old family history. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest.
Here’s one of ‘em.
Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell.
This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost.
Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive.
I hope you appreciate the effort.

FORGOTTEN FEUDIST

TEXAS PIONEER GENEAOLGY
IS LYING ON SOME DEALER’S SHELF
While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that.
My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the Ebay entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete and seldom found western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color.
As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
Buyer pays postage of $3.50 First Class Postage to U. S., $4.50 to Canada. $4.60 Priority Mail. $10.00 for International Mail. Texans must pay 8-¼ % sales tax. Thanks,
Tom
