Welcome to our Comunity Network, Carman.

I have a note of:

There are numerous references to a john Douglas, variously described as an indentured servant, and as a someone who was press-ganged onto a man-of-war, and who married a native American.

Do either of these sound familiar?

Yours aye,

William

Carman,

There is a discussion about John here: http://pub32.bravenet.com/forum/static/show.php?usernum=2687235007&...

You might also find this article about research myths useful - though I am noy saying that this story is not true, just that we need to be careful.
