white corns

I'm growing Hickory King corn this year. I was looking at a picture and description of "tuscaloosa white" today, and it is remarkably similar to my HK ears. Does anybody know if HK was perhaps bred from TW?

Most likely, the other way round. Hickory King has been in continuous production since 1870. First time I have heard of Tuscaloosa White and it still does not show up in a Google search.
