The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

My Genealogy

Sadly, I just discovered that the source which tied my paternal genealogy line to Charlemagne might be in error and that I may not be in a direct line to Charlemagne. Recent research has revealed that my ancestor, Richard I Lionheart is not directly descended from Charlemagne.

There is evidence that King Richard spent a great deal of time with a mistress in Cornwall England and my surname comes from a “bastard” son of that arrangement.

History is not static but dynamic. It means that hypothesis are not always fully supported with facts and primary source information. One day, it is possible we can find some of the information to be false, not because someone erred but because the sources used could be incorrect.
