Boast all you want while dwelling on the Beale Papers as your source of evidence. Yesterday, I was in contact with James Beverly Ward's GGranddaughter. I have also been in contact with his granddaughter and her sons.
So I am still poking around for something that may prove of great importance.
You keep quoting from the Job Print Pamphlet or whatever.
Let Rebel and I do boots on the ground research and we just may prove some of your theories wrong.
What proof of importance can be derived on 2019 from descendants several generation removed?
Ward's great grandson Gorham Walker stated he placed NO CREDENCE on the Beale Paper's tale.
I doubt that current generations of the Ward line can add anything of substance beyond what has already been stated.
As for quoting the Beale Papers pamphlet, it is, after all, the original and ONLY source of this perilous adventure treasure tale of Thomas J Beale and his band of hearty men.
Everything that came afterwards is highly subjective based on the writer's belief concerning the original story, many times with added on embellishments as presented by George L Hart and Claudine Fulton Eliis who created an elaborated tale based on Hart's PLANTER'S HOTEL of St Louis mention on why the "key letter" was never delivered to Robert Morriss: or Bauman's tale of Edgar Allen Poe's Grand Diddle of faking his death so he could move to France to work with Jules Verne leaving behind the Beale manuscript with Rosalie and Muddy with instructions to deliver it to Ward.
I am not preventing anyone from "boots on the ground", just discussing the discrepancies, errors, embellishments, and fabrications that have been presented as fact, or have been claimed as proof for the Beale treasure story Ward published in the original dime novel pamphlet.
