Reply #50: Fortunately I have nothing to prove to you. Your agenda is not

[emad]

my agenda. I shall enjoy watching you eat crow when the book is published.

You have called me a liar and rubbished my posting. I will make a point of archiving this and posting it up when the Wallis book is published and the website is launched. Others will then be able to make up their own minds about you and your own credibility.

There are no holes in my posting as you claim. The only holes are the ones that exist in your own ego.

Re Gilbert Vivian Truman:

TRUMAN: J.C., that would be John Curtis, and my sister Callie Louise, his twin, who is dead, were born August 20, 1912. Then Martha Ann, I believe, was born on January 31, 1918. I'm not sure about that. Harry was born on September 18, 1923, I believe. Gilbert Vivian was born June 26, 1926.

Post #28 is yours. Harry A Truman is not Harry S Truman. Gilbert Truman is not Gilbert Vivian Truman.

I am sure your observations would amuse the Trumans, particularly as the biography contains all Wallis's medical records, including her three miscarriages and the recorded deaths/stillbirths of the first two infants conceived as test tube babies (1947 and 1955) I believe. Also correspondence with the doctors who succeeded in finding the surrogate who eventually gave birth to the Duke and Duchess's daughter Mary.

I am not surprised you haven't been able to find internet stuff on her. The family holds sole copyright and defends its legal ownership assiduously.

The Truman Trust is a private charity registered in the US and the UK. David Truman is it's principal trustee. It's funding record of social and medical projects worldwide is available in reply to written requests. It's extensive contributions to the Democratic Party presidential campaigns 1992-1996 and 1996-2000 are also a matter of public record.

The Truman children are registered voters in London and West Sussex.

The Truman's ownership of properties in London and New York's DeWitt Clinton Park is also matter of public record.

When I need advice on how to conduct myself on DU I will let you know. In the meantime I am looking forward to the last editorial meeting when the final dust jacket of the book is unveiled.
