I'm trying to sort out possibly more than one John Pottenger, Immigrant to Maryland, (born 1642 or 1662 or both?) and see this article as a reference.  Does anyone have access to a copy?

Pottenger] Thompson, Neil D. and Paul C. Reed. "Falsehood and Truth: The Ancestry of John Pottenger, Immigrant to Maryland in 1684," The American Genealogist, Vol. 68, No. 3 (Jul. 1993):139-145. Available at FHL.

The handy FHL link, unfortunately goes to a different article!

Not that the link would help anyway. Back issues cost $12 each!

I know have a copy.  Well written, very informative, clears up a whole lot of questions about John Pottenger.  But does contain an error -- he incorrectly states that John Pottenger married Mary Beall, relying on Fielder M. M. Beall's book which is full of errors.  Pottenger's wife Mary will remain Mary Unknown.

I suspect the best source would be a library that subscribes.  Family History Centers might be one place to look.  I"d look online first to see if you can find a periodical index, but if you can't find it, go to any major library in your area and ask a reference librarian to look for you.  They normally have indexes and may be able to have the article sent to you.  The is true for University libraries.

Dave, I marked your answer as best, because it's of course what one should do, and it's the zero cost method.  But I'll have to admit, I'm lazy, and just shipped off $12 to get my own copy of the article!  Now, the author had better answer all my questions!

I do but it looks like you found one already. I'd like to visit with you sometime regarding John's wife Mary ?.
