that my interpretation of "Amongst descendants" is perfectly acceptable.
Again your whinging about the mentioning about your wife is pitiful. You are
the one who brought in my niece and Peter Stewart's relatives. You wouldn't
be aiming at a double standard? What is good for the goose is good for the
gander.
Talking about fixation, who keeps on about "Amongst descendants"? After
Peter Stewart's remarks are you going to admit that you are wrong? Or are
you continuing to screw that pooch?
Tell me who is Thomas Howard Dean? You seem to know him?

Subject: Re: Counting Descendants
"Amongst descendants" belong spouses, as otherwise there would be no next
generation. Apparently you have not grasped that fact. I wonder what
Kuniko
thinks about this attitude that spouses "do not belong to a family".
Interesting attitude. De Jure Descendants (spouses) are an essential part
of any family." -- Leo van de Pas
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Leo just keeps wriggling and throwing out red herrings. Also, my WIFE has
no part in this discussion. He needs to leave her out of it. I'm not
talking about his BOYFRIENDS in this venue. But if he wants to open up
that
unsavory door to a back room, so be it...
1. That's not what Leo originally wrote -- "...belong to a family".
2. THIS is what he wrote:
"A very kind person helped me with information about the Stuyvesant
family,
I have digested this and made a file just to see what it brought together
and it is quite amazing (to me) who are to be found amongst the
descendants
of this family. Kirk Douglas, Montgomery Clift, Eleanor Roosevelt, Robert
Traill Spence Lowel IV, Adam von Trott zu Solz (involved in the conspiracy
against Hitler), Princess Maria Antonia de Braganca, Infanta of Portugal,
and many others." -- Leo van de Pas
3. ALL the others named above are allegedly DESCENDANTS of a STUYVESANT.
Kirk Douglas is NOT.
Let's use a biological example. We have a list of sea animals here -- a
dolphin, an oyster, an octopus, a shark, a crab -- AND then we spot a
PANTHER, the first one on the list.
Kirk Douglas is the PANTHER. -- He doesn't FIT.
Kirk Douglas is NOT a Stuyvesant Descendant, whereas the FIVE others
allegedly ARE Stuyvesant Descendants.
4. Leo doesn't even know what a DESCENDANT is in GENEALOGY!
Hilarius Magnus Cum Laude!
A self-professed Genealogist, constantly working in the English language,
who doesn't even understand what a DESCENDANT is....
Further, Leo is flummoxed, farbissen and farblondjet -- so, he wriggles,
throws out red herring strawmen and tries to move the goal posts.
His latest gaffe is in confusing Howard Dean of Vermont with Tom Kean of
New
Jersey.
Victoria, it just doesn't get any better than this.
And he has some sort of fixation on "trhe East Coast of Europe".
What's THAT All About?
Enjoy!
