Regarding genealogical relationship to the Turbert family - appears in error[edit]

ONCE AGAIN, I QUESTION THE SOURCE THAT LINKS TOM HYER TO THE 'GREAT TURBERT FAMILY' -- WHO ARE THE TURBERTS? AS A GENEALOGIST, I HAVE NOTHING THAT SHOWS SUCH A LINK ... TOM HYER HAD NO BIOLOGICAL CHILDREN - PLEASE SHOW THE TIE-IN MORE SPECIFICALLY! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Claudiamontana8 (talk • contribs)

Tom did have a daughter, Charlotte, born in Sacco, Maine on march 9, 1849 to he and his wife Emma Beke. Charlotte and her husband Floyd Grant had a daughter May Rankin Grant who married Charles Davis.

I removed that "Turbert" sentence, it would not belong in the lede even if true.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 02:21, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
