FORWORD:
Our understanding of the past is constantly evolving. As we examine new information that has been discovered and researchers find further proof to either support or debunk the theories of the past, we are given new perspectives on those familiar historical events, places and people. History can also be a collective story too. It is nice to see that those old familiar tales are not just ignored or discarded as bunk, but respected, credited and properly referenced by modern day researchers and authors...besides...It is all part of the story.
No matter what, it will come to pass that both the old and new theories will fall into the hands of yet another generation for further revision.

"The faintest ink is better than the strongest memory"
...is an ancient Chinese proverb meaning that even a poorly written record is more reliable than the best human memory
...I prefer to say -
"No man's memory is as good as the faintest ink"
Wallace Shellington, Harley Ontario
