Archives do not denote anyone was bashing the John Couch line
archives denote, in the last go around the questioning of Martin Couch, s
children
By at least one person. {not me}
Attempts to clear some of the historical dates pertaining to the line, went
un heeded
by you Bill. { just stating fact}
Its come to light, that you contacted a person to help straighten the line.
ANd after that the line went down
Do you take down all lines, that others have questions on?
Is is wrong to question DNA, when its not showing what was expected? Nor
linking what others though
it would.
Others have asked you concerning info, and you have not answered them.
What you have done by taking down the whole line is unfair in whole and in
part. But you pay the server
for info on the domain either private or commercial
Its real funny one person, that admits you had contact with tells several
people they have been contacted
to "help" with the line.
Not one post to this list has been seen where anyone questioned the John
Couch line
There was ONE post made of the problems with the Martin Couch line.... and
thats in archives.
So you pull the whole linage?

So inpart what you said is ones on the line contact YOU with their documents
and supply them to you
and then you will ad them?
People question your Arkansas line all the time.. how come they aint down?
This is the same kinda stuff you did Bill on the US GenWeb project in 96/97
pulling info and walking away from it.
Your excuse for pulling the whole line is lame at best. and you have really
upset ALOT of people
If it all came to light You and one other person made the decision to pull
the info. Their info still remains
at present.
I will say it appears you want now people to send info to you and most of it
paid for I might add
to put it back up?
Naw dont buy it... Others other than me have questioned certain lines
pertaining to John and later
they have not got answers either.
What you have done dont surprize me or who had a hand in getting all pulled
Since the demise of the original US Genweb and its falling apart of which
you had a hand in
nothing surprizes me

So as it stands now per your posts You have eliminated the whole line from
couchgenweb
Im sure others are not happy with your decision.
You took all your marbles and went home.. dont surprize me in the least.
What you did just made the ky lines pull more together.
maybe thanks sould be given

PS
Questioning dates on the line and where you original got them was against
the rules?
Or asking for your sourse? on how you posted them?
