George Green papers, 1835-1939, (bulk 1844-1880).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/46780149

Surveyor's field notes, both originals and true copies from the Texas General Land Office, surveyor's sketches, business correspondence, legal and financial documents, and blank official forms document the business of a deputy surveyor in Milam County and Central Texas from soon after the Texas Revolution through Reconstruction. Photographs of Green, Battle of San Jacinto veterans, a friend and San Jacinto veteran George Erath and a memorial on the San Jacinto Battleground dated possibly between 1881 and 1885 are also of interest. Granddaughter Alice McGehee's handwritten notes concern Green's field notes.
