Copyleft problem[edit]

I have deleted this article and recreated it as a stub.

This is because Wikipedia Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License allows commercial distribution, but the current licence used by the British Civil War website is Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported, which places a restriction "Non-Commercial — You may not use this work for commercial purposes." which the Wikipedia license does not.

Providing the requirements of the Terms of Use and WP:plagiarism are met there is no reason why information from the British Civil War website can not be summarised and and cited like any other copyright text. But it can not be copied under its copyleft licence into Wikipedia articles because its licence is more restrictive than the Wikipedia licence. -- PBS (talk) 20:13, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relation to Tillinghast family?[edit]

The article about a John Tillinghast says he was a nephew of this Robert Tichborne. Robert had a sister Elizabeth Tichborne, who is no longer believed to be a direct ancestor of mine. I am descended from John's brother Pardon. I am looking for reliable information about connections between the Tichborne and Tillinghast families.
