Looking at the listing, you'd think Leland's would have enough class to update the blurb about their founder. Too much to ask, it appears.

Do you know anything about Howe? Was curious about the possible back story. Feel free to link another thread. I did a quick search but no joy.

Default John, you’ll probably regret asking ...

Here are links starting with the first time I mentioned Howe and all the misinformation I had at the time ...

Thanks for the fascinating read. I greatly enjoyed reading through those links and the T206 article(s). Called my wife at work to tell her about this. She commented that it sounds like something you would do. I also dabble in genealogy and I wondered if you had gone down that route. It looks like great fun.

In fact, I wonder if Leon would let you put up a sticky with those links.
