Hello Coleen,
We are both from the same Gabriel from Wales. . .I thought I'd start out by sharing some of the info that I had seen floating around on the Gen Forums. . . especially on the coat of arms, etc.You can google it and it will come up. . .Lots of companies that are cheating good people out of hard earned money and all for what?A piece of paper with an outdated or non existant coat of arms.
I just received "Just Plain Fowlkes" by Stephen Fowlkes and it has major flaws in it as well.Then after reading all the posts on the gen forums, I got a little upset that everyone is believing all this stuff without any or little documentation.
I have 4 Fowlkes pieces of information and all 4 are incorrect and not documented properly.I'm really worried that our line of Fowlkes are in danger of bad information and the actual history could be passed on to future generations as incorrect information.
I'm sorry for getting involved in all this.But I just wanted folks to understand that all the information that is out there doesn't necessarily make it correct information.
I know -- I couldn't afford a coat of arms or family crest if I had to. . .
I'm in Tennessee and I'm so jealous that you are in WY!!!!!That is my favorite state in the Union!You are sooooo lucky. . . balmy, hot or muggy!
Oh, and I'm from the Gabriel Fowlkes Tennessee line. . .
