Virgil,

Come back to Earth please. First, I never said that YOU mentioned Wikipedia. However, in the link that Ron sent me for one of the sites you do frequent it is there to be clicked on - which I did. Wikipedia is always suspect to one level or another which is why it is frowned upon as a source that can be trusted. Also, some of the information on the site you do frequent (or did) that had the Wikipedia link also has erroneous information on it. I also did not state that you posted that information did I? Some others did however.

No high horse on my end. Please reread what I posted an show me where your name was called into this. All I suggested was that you check more sources than what was on the link, again from Ron.

I also never called into question anything of your ancestor at all. All I have asked for are the accounts of the 44th having a Polk flag and I do not even know the source of those accounts as yet.

Hope this helps.
