C. Eddington household...how & why? Why did they move to MO?Suppose his father (John) either died in NC or on route to MO. She eithermet this Eddington man on the way or in MO?...I seem to have read somewherethat there were several Eddingtons' in TN...maybe they met on the way to MO.in TN? Anyway the big question is what happened to John? >>First - I'm not so great at theories - but when you have nothing else but a lot of twisted information - it's fun to play "what-if." Boil it. Stir it around. Throw it all up against the wall and see what sticks. Here's another good theory. The info in Janice's book was - afterall - just a cruel hoax.Second, the big question is not only what happened to John - but who was he? Last night I sat up until 2AM reading the back part of Janice's book. I'm so confused now that I no longer remember who my father was. Does anyone else see that there are two Jacob's who ended up in Missouri? Please let me know on this one.Third - I looked at the LDS site again - and there were several Eddingtons in Tennessee - and in Missouri.Gotta go - gonna read the book some more.
