Need help unravelling this!

I see now that you already knew that Fesenmayer was his mother’s maiden surname!

It seems I spent several hours yesterday looking for information you were given a year ago.

but you were looking form something I wasn't asking about because I knew that information!

We've all done it Jen, with this OP

Aghadowey summed up the situation back in November.

Personally, I think it is best to ignore any thread with the words "John" and "Dorrington" in close proximity

You asked if Dorrington was his real name and if Fesenmayer was an alias.

I replied that Fesenmayer was his mother’s maiden surname, which seemed to me to be a reasonable point to make.

How on earth was I expected to know you already had that information when you hadn’t bothered to mention it at the start? It was only when I decided to do a search on RC for that surname that I found your other thread.

You asked for 1871 information about Mary Dorrington, which I gave you, and also about John Fesenmayer in 1871 which I gave you (he was clearly John Dorrington in 1871), none of which you have bothered to acknowledge.

So good luck with your further research into John Dorrington, but I won’t be joining in.
