Yes, I think you have hit the nail on the head here! George Sanborn's work, by his own admission, is NOT reliable in the early parts of it, especially with any references to the UK. Many of the Taunton researchers have plucked data from this source and the Ancestral File and IGI. Both of these are MOST unreliable!!!!!!!!!!!!! What we need to do here is collectively get PROOF! I want to see copies of actual documents! Lets get them, one by one, to physically PROVE our case. I propose we start with Thomas Caswell & Mary Sanderson and their children, and work SOLELY on that line for a few days. -----Original Message----- From: HHuntoon@aol.com <HHuntoon@aol.com> To: CASWELL-L@rootsweb.com <CASWELL-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Friday, March 05, 1999 7:59 AM Subject: Re: [CASWELL-L] Thomas Caswel & Mary Sanderson TAUNTON ma. >Re Thomas Caswell having 12 kids, that follows from the old Sanborn articles, >doesn't it?
