Frederic....As I have ever said, "As we get back, and go with the best there is, and all we have". I am sure after Jamestowne Va. and into England, there may be errors as to "direct connections, and it get worse the farther we go back, but..."IT IS THE BEST THAT HISTORY PROVIDES FROM SOMEONE`S INTERPRETED SOURCE".....I have never doubted that, but those who begin doubting in this century as to who was the 1st "Duke of Norfolk", or who was the "Earl of Mercia" or such....is not for genealogy sake, but to protect what they see as "their" image of "Expert" as a "research genealogist"....and I understand that.
Anything I have ever put on forum, and that has been about 30 different lines of my family, has been to simply "SHARE" what I have, and suspect to be true, or KNOW TO BE TRUE. I do not do this for money or income, I do it for myself, and later for my children, and grandchildren, and great grandchildren. If any ever get into genealogy, they will probably find mistakes in mine, yours, and theirs too....but with all that I am giving, to OTHERS, the least you can say about it is that , it gives a place to "check out", or a turn that might not have been evaluated, had not given....or et. al. .......I am doing what I am doing in good faith, for enjoyment of looking, and with a personal view in mind. I do not need, or care to argue, fuss, and act ugly on this forum, as several have.
I have , and have been given researched materials from England in the Records Offices, and et. al. on lots of this later "English Royalty" materials, and it was "reasearched" many years before I , or you, Karen, and other today, were even born, and known even farther back....so, I am not concerned about that anyway...as I have said: "I have it and the best documented version, as far back as it goes"!!
Thanks again for all your help in my looking too, and back.....That Shipley line I sent you is genuine, as is the Tutor, as the records show....Thanks again, Jack Howard
