My understanding (not a scientist) is that hemophilia is sex-linked in
such a fashion that males "get it" from/through their mothers, but never
pass it on;


Not so! Sons who have the gene, (and, therefore, the disease, can pass on
said gene, on the infected 'X' chromosome, (therefore, only to their
daughters). I have no notes in front of me, right now, but IIRC, one of
Vic's sons, or grandsons, did just so.
F


and daughters do not get it, but carry it (or not) to only
male offspring.

Haven't read all postings, so perhaps this has already been discussed
and elucidated.
