Description

This "history" is sadly largely fiction. All the events leading up to about 1800 either never happened or involved other people and the author changed the names to enhance his view of the family.

Almost all the events after 1800 are accurate as much as I've been able to verify.

The reason I've edited this document and presented it is to illustrate to other genealogists the hazards of accepting a document at its face value. Everything must be checked and verified before presenting to the public.
