TAKING PEOPLE TO TASK

Legg inn av Bill Arnold » 14 nov 2007 05:27:02

TAF has taken me to task for not KNOWING in my genealogical heart of hearts
that Beth and Betsey WERE/ARE/ALWAYS WERE/ALWAYS ARE nicknames aka
*sobriquets* of Elizabeth. And this is AFTER I wrote that I figured it out for
myself, and have repeated numerous times that I am a *naif* when it comes
to English Medieval matters. Shucks, I do believe *the Virgin Queen* was named
Elizabeth. And in my kindness, I was trying to save someone who might drop
a lineage by reminding us all that names change because people tell Visitation
takers and census takers the NAME they use: and it took me years to figure
out some of this stuff. So, I admit I am still learning.

So: Monsieur TAF better admit he can LEARN, too, not two, from this ole
English prof with an American leaning or two:

the slightest indication of this reversal of fortune (I guess we
should just be glad all of the earlier posts in the thread were not
deleted).

BA: I sure hope TAF is *not* deleted because he ought to know that
it was "only obscured due to" and not do nor dew!

PS eat some *humble pie,* Sir!
