The Swindler Asgill

[Winjoy]

“It might be tempting to think that William was an illegitimate son - in fact that was the conclusion of the Asgill family for some time now - but this has now been proved false.” You are absolutely right, LizzieL, it is most remiss of me to have used the word “proved” – quite unforgivable in fact.  I am convinced that is the case, all the same – the proof is what I came here for.
I certainly didn’t come here to have to say the same things over and over again – to be disbelieved on every count – and 17 pages later to have learnt nothing (other than the famous signature of Mary Leuchford which disproves the Leuchford belief that she was illiterate) but that fact barely impinges on the bigger story – Mary was still ostensibly a bride who would have been unacceptable to the General for his only child – only son – etc. etc. etc.  As we all know – General Asgill and his wife Sophia Ogle had no children at all – much less a sole son and heir.

This is, seriously my last post now.

Whether I read in future or not is something only time will tell. But all this is not what I came here to achieve - having to endlessly defend myself - repeat myself - and exhaust myself.

Nobody is prepared to help me prove the connection with WCA and the Swindler.  Everybody is telling me endlessly of things already known.

Goodbye to you all.

Winjoy,
You may think this is a good place to mark your thread as "completed"

I think Winjoy does not realise how difficult it is for someone new to the 'mystery' to remember all the facts that have been supplied and not question various parts of the story. 

Winjoy has been working on the research since 2002 (or before) and so has the knowledge at the tips of her fingers, we do not.

More than a decade of information is going to need more than a quick week of rootschat suggestions and discussions

If Winjoy read other postings on rootschat then perhaps she would have noticed that that is what happens, and in any research we go over and over old ground to make sure that we have not missed anything.  (I am talking here about scientific research as much as genealogical).

Winjoy thinks that not a word that she has said has been believed.  No.  Every word that she has said might need to be questionned, but that is not because it is not believed, but in an attempt to get to the truth.

“I see no sign of you being " patronised, shouted at and looked down on," or anything turning "sinister and dark".

I understand that on the internet capitalised letters mean shouting! Look back and you will see what I mean.

As that was my quote that I did not believe Winjoy had been patronised, I have looked back.  I stand by my assertion.

It is sad that the rootschat researchers have been so misunderstood when they are just trying to get to the truth.

Good grief!

Indeed, I hadn't spotted the new device 
Thanks for the tip. It's now stored for future reference!

Good grief, has this been a thread where some people have tried to help with a difficult problem, or a court of law?!

Clearly some people see things differently and take things unnecessarily to heart.

It would seem a good idea for this thread to go for a lie down in a dark room. I'm sorry that we weren't able to help (though not for lack of trying!) and I'm sorry that Winjoy has clearly chosen to interpret those efforts in such a negative light.

That's all from me on this thread. No point in trying any more.
