I'm still here...

Howdy,

We need to get a topic going again!

I'm still working on the manuscript nearly every day. As I mentioned
earlier, I've decided to focus on the first part: Hamil's book and
Walker's FGS. I still have awhile to go before finishing the first draft
of it. Hamil's book, of course, is spaghetti. At some point, my own
writing was looking the same in trying to deal with the problem. But I've
found the right approach and it's coming along.

BTW, I've notice recently for the first time that Hamil spelled
Elizabeth's name as "Firmin." I've not been able to find my copy of Dale
Walker's chart for ages (does anyone have it?) but Eleanor Rue's
transcription of it spells it Fermin. In other words, Hamil--at the very
least--got the spelling right. I wonder how Walker's apparent misspelling
came about.
