==Kevin Randolph Hearst==
Alleged son of Stephen Thompson Hearst (b. 1956) by his alleged wife Sarah Elizabeth Rose (1958-1989).  The connection was recently questioned on Ged-Med by a note forwarded from Harry McLaughlin by Leo van de Pas.  That prompted me to investigate.

George Randolph Hearst III initiated an [http://www.domainstatute.com/domain-name-disputes/cpr/icanndecisioncpr0410-041220.html action] dated 12 Nov 2004 to suspend the web site hearstmania.com, which in postings is stated to be owned or operated by Kevin Randolph Hearst, but whose true owner is registered as "Matthew Edison of New Cumberland, WV".  The complaint mentions that the website was registered Feb 2004.  George R Hearst states in his complaint, among other things that the owner has "...no connection with the famous Hearst family...".  The dispute decision was that the website was cancelled.
