What goes, I hate mistakes?? Causes many problems??

Can't lay my hands on Beckwith's history -- maybe I typed it wrong. I see a problem in her death date - is that what you're talking about? Gives lots more goodies in the Beckwith (Sam's birth for one). If you mean this date, I think it means John Wolverton died then not Braxton Cash - wasn't sure what dates you were talking about ?
