Looking for some Genealogical Connections of
BONNELL, GEORGE WILLIAM (?-1842).

Ref: http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/articles/BB/fbo17.html

"George W. Bonnell, journalist and soldier, a native of Onondaga County, New York, was an editor in Alabama for a time and moved by 1829 to Columbus, Mississippi, where he worked as an editor. He traveled to Texas in the summer of 1836 with a company of volunteers from Columbus that he had recruited for the Texas war of independence."
...
"On January 15, 1840, Bonnell started publication of the first Austin 'Texas Sentinel'. He sold the Sentinel on December 26, 1840, the year he printed his 'Topographical Description of Texas, to Which is Added an Account of the Indian Tribes'."

Any and All clues welcome,
Thanks,
Steve
