SUMMARY:Chaparral Genealogical Society
DESCRIPTION:Both history enthusiasts and genealogists will enjoy hearing author Audrey Barrett Cook discuss her new book "OBEDIENCE SMITH (1771-1847) PIONEER OF THREE AMERICAN FRONTIERS - Her Ancestors and Descendants."  In 1838 the Republic of Texas granted to the widow Smith 3\,368 acres of now prime\, downtown Houston real estate. As Mrs. Smith migrated from frontier to frontier\, little did she know that her life would be so thoroughly recorded so many years later. This book is a really outstanding chronicle of that journey.
