It’s important to be able to separate legend from fact, Bodleian_Girl. Do not confuse the two as they are not one and the same. Legend often has factual basis, but it gets confabulated over the centuries, so caution is in order. I stated that in my very first reply to this thread because I know it to be true, having encountered it again and again. You appear to be in love with the legend and want it to be true, that much is evident from selectively editing that letter you posted to the thread twice.
You’re going to believe what you want, but please don’t misrepresent legend or opinion as fact, in either history or genealogy. This is a matter of both.
I don’t believe science is a legend.
But that’s just me.
