What "people" are called in different countries may be interesting, but

agne,

ne,

Queen Henrietta Maria of England "is not people"........Nor is Charlemagne,
William the Conqueror, Alfred the Great, and so on.

chevrondazur...
Names given to famous individuals vary from country to country. The
French call Leonardo da Vinci L=E9onard de Vinci but the English stick
to his Italian name. The English say to Joan of Arc but Emperor
Wilhelm whereas the French say l'empereur Guillaume. Are there any
reliable rules ?

CED...
Dear Chevron:

Oh dear! No more rules! Richardson is surely to make a rule for all
of us to use. (He has one for most situations.)

CED


I told you who broke the truce and continued with petty demented
picking----and it was not me. I do not act----I re-act. And it should be
made clear by more people than just me that Richardson's behaviour,
attitude, rule-of-thumb-----are just not up to scratch.

After all he is the trained genealogist and historian, he is trying to sell
books. All he succeeds in is having his name being mentioned, apparently
with the approval of people _like you_ If you did not approve you should
say so----now it is a bit late.
