A page of questions that Douglas Richardson has yet to answer.

1.As a supporter of crossposting, he has been asked how or if it has benefitted Gen-Med, can he advise what are the positive results. And does he still support it?

2.He has stated that "Countess" was a first name used in medieval times. He has been asked to supply just one sample in either England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland.

3.He proclaimed that Edward III had at least one son by Alice Perrers, John de Sotheray. Since then it has been noted that Alice Perrers may not even be the mother, let alone Edward III the father.

4.He has been asked for the proof that Ida was Ida de Tosny, and who actually made that discovery.

5.Don Stone asked (17 October 2007): "What is the exact wording of this reference to Robert, brother of John Botetourt? If no surname is given, it occurs to me that it might be a Robert de Saham, (half) brother of John Botetourt, since John is elsewhere specified as a brother of William de Saham."

6.On 16 October 2007 Douglas Richardson recorded that Eve Marshal married William de Brewes and is mother of Maud de Brewes. On 21 October Todd Farmerie observes that there are several spellings. Historians in the past have usually chosen to standardize this as Braose, but Mr. Richardson has simply chosen to use an alternative representation of the name. On 21 October Doug Thompson: "There was a long discussion on this newsgroup around March 2002 on the topic of the various spellings of Braose and which might be the preferred usage. You can find it in the archive by searching for "spelling braose". Briwer, Bruere, Brewer is a totally different family.
