Forklore is what it says folklore. There can be no assurance that the stories contain factual information. These stories have a place in our own genealogy records and books, but I do not believe they should be passed on the genealogy list. We all strive to make sure that we pass on only documented information. Stories, folklore cannot be documented. Also once a door is opened, folklore, stories, become many other things like jokes, Aunt Jane's odd personality, the chicken that killed the snake and many, many other items. Haint a nary one of youes that can 'pute that. Doyle King kingdek@gmail.com

Well Doyle, You are right also. Its like someones genealogy on thier web pages. If its on the internet its bound to 'be so'. NOT SO! I see a lot of erronous genealogy on peoples web sites. Just Don't take the stories to be factual. -- Gerald Lay Lay Family Genealogical Association ----- Original Message ----- From: Doyle King To: tncampbe@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2008 11:56 PM Subject: [TNCAMPBE] Stories Forklore is what it says folklore.
