Dear John ~ I'm extremely sorry to hear that you were banned from WikiTree for disagreeing with me. Free enquiry is the CENTRAL focus of my scholarly pursuits. The idea that you would be banned for simply expressing an alternative view is not anything I would support. Honest scholars can disagree and still be friends. If you would be so kind, please forward me the contact information for the person(s) who banned you. I will address this matter personally. < It is probably most appropriate that I do so directly to your e-mail address < as above? Yes, by all means, you're more than welcome to correspond with me privately at my e-mail address. > Regards > John Best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah
