Levi Jordan PlantationKids!The students in Donna Gregurek's 8th grade Computer Literacy classes in Sweeny, Texas (four miles from the Jordan Plantation) will, someday, help us to create this page – so stay tuned for their version of what a 'kids' page about the Jordan Plantation should look like! We hope to have this done by 2001.If you have a suggestion about what they should do with this page, please send a feedback form to tell us about it! |
