TXFossils

Welcome to my website.

This website contains images of fossils found on our property in Hood Co., TX and other counties in Texas and Oklahoma. When you find a fossil, more times than not, you find a fragment or partial piece of the fossil.  For this reason, my site shows what is typically found, including partial fossils.  You can look at images either by location or by type of specimen. Just click on the appropriate link. We have found many interesting fossils, and hope you find them interesting as well. Specimens range from 95MYA to 450MYA. 

I want to thank Mr. Bob Williams of the Dallas Paleo Society, and Ben Neuman,  Professor of Biology and Chief Virologist of the Global Health Research Complex Texas A&M University, for helping me with the identification and naming of many of the specimens listed.  Their help has been invaluable. In addition, Dr. Royal Mapes, retired Professor from Ohio University has helped a great deal with identification of some of the cephalopods.
