cactusjumper,
If he were alive today, what do you think the Dutchman would say about what became of his much loved Republican ticket? I am still laughing at Fox News and their unbiased coverage of the upcoming "innigeration"... inauguration. Talk about tipping your hand. Have you seen the video yet? The deeper I look into the life of the Dutchman the more I like him. I just learned that Julia Thomas (Schaeffer) was made postmistress in 1893. A black business woman in charge of the mail, before the turn of the century? Now that is a testimony to the settlers of Phoenix. And still, for this Ruth, there is no monument to mark her accomplishments.
cactusjumper, johnmark29020,
Unless the Julia A. Thomas is a misprint, they are not the same people. Her marriage to Albert S. Schaffer is a little mystery in itself. First she is listed as Julia W. #228218 and on the same date, but with a new number #625885, Julie W. Thomas. Seems that she made a correction...
I could use some help narrowing down her maiden name?
I think that any researcher/writer (pre-internet) looking at Julia Thomas of Louisiana might come to the conclusion that she was black or mulato. It may be a mistake as T. Kollenborn suggests. Should we be looking for Juile W. Khan, Korn, Corn, or other?
wrmickel1,
I am sorry to be so dense this morning. If they are maps without a scale, then why did you respond with "8 miles"? I am not interested in anything other than learning the scale of the maps, and if there is no scale, how can they be considered maps? If you do not know the scale or do not want to share it, please just say so.
wrmickel,
Well, I was going to ignore your last post for reasons previously stated, but...
Before you get ahead of yourself, why not consider asking the people who sponsor you to invest in having the stones dated? This is possible now (I believe) to some degree of accuracy. Wouldn't one owe that to their investors... demonstrating some type of provenance? Why not be remembered as the guy who dated (and resolved) the stone map cipher? Quite honestly your ideas here have been poorly communicated and responses, when asked, peppered with cynicism and over confidence. That simply works to undermine your credibility and is a first timers mistake. I have made that one myself.
Have the stones dated. I think that you may be surprised.
Azhiker,
Thank you! Again!
