I am very far from being perfect and that’s one of the main reasons why I have such an interest in and affection for the less-than-saintly characters of human history. When approaching stories like this, I fully consider how I’d feel to find negative newspaper reports about my own ancestors, and I conclude that I would be delighted and fascinated. I can assure you that if I unearthed similar sources about my own family history I wouldn’t hesitate to blog about them in the same style. I appreciate, however, that not everyone feels the same so I apologise for causing you offence. Hi Jan – thank you for visiting the site.
