(meteorobs) Brenham meteorite

[MARK BOSTICK]

"Hello:
	There seems to be some confusion as to the identity of the Brenham 
meteorite you found.  Is this a new meteorite, or another piece of the 1882 
fall?????  As for size, it is sometimes called the World largest Pallasite  
but Huckitta at 2 tons is larger.  Any comments about this???

Hello Ed and list,

Not sure who or exactly what you are asking, but I will try to help a little 
here.

A previous post on this list:

Ed, these appear to refer to two different objects.

The meteorite that was at the museum, and recovered from the torando damage 
is a Breham meteorite.  The other link Ed provided is a Brenham meteorite, 
but a different stone from the same fall.

As a side note, Brenham was found in Kiowa County, Kansas.  Two other 
meteorites have also been found in Kiowa County, both H5's.

Clear Skies,
Mark
