Richard then married:

Edith Thorne b March 31 1810 They had 10 children 6 boys and 4 girls Thomas, Isaac, Joseph & Richard are all I have. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 56.0.143.25 (talk) 16:28, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Which history book would write "are all I have"? What you're quoting is apparently from http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/HETHERINGTON/2000-02/0950414498. Cite an actual history book, or stop removing the fact tags. 87.137.122.207 (talk) 16:58, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is very confusing. As currently phrased, it's not clear who was a Naval Captain, who was a Lieutenant in 1843, and who was President of the Virgin Islands Council. House of Commons Sessional Papers 1818 Vol XVII p 123-4 names Andrew Anderson (whose wife was Hannah Hetherington) as President of the Council 94.195.138.19 (talk) 15:10, 24 February 2014 (UTC).[reply]
