sheet. Material should be mailed to the Society at the address given above, and should be accompanied by return
self-addressed-stamped envelope for acknowledgment. Neither the Society or the STIRPES staff assume responsibility

STIRPES (prounced Stir-pes) is the plural of the Latin
word stirps, meaning roots. TEXAS evolved from the
Indian word Tejas, for friends. We're known as the
Friendship State as well as the Lone Star State because
of our flag with a single star, which was also the flag
of the Republic of Texas.
