Conclusion
After an intense discussion with a direct maternal descendant of the brother of Captain Vancouver, I decided that instead of explanation or discussions via snail mail or constant e-mailing information back and forth, I would simply build a small website and show all the available information to him.
David,
I again stress that I am in no way trying to steal your right of decendancy away, I simply believe that Mr. Mansveld was assuming to much when he wrote his theory. There is just not enough hard evidence showing solid proof of his theories.
His story is built around his theories not his proof.
My belief in this whole story remains firm that there is a POSSIBLE common link in our ancestry, and that of Captain Vancouver. Everyone would like to believe that they are descendants from nobility and I do not assume that you are not, but there is a chance.
I am well aware that I am descendant of regular folks; farmers, carpenters, tradesmen, and merchants. It is my opinion that captain Vancouver is also descendant of these regular folk.
