Eltweed Pomeroy has a disputed lineage section in biography.  Anderson says there was fraudulent photographic reproduction in the disproven genealogy. There is also caution in the disputed section that his mother was NOT Eleanor Coker.  Project Protect?

Richard Pomeroy his father is protected.  Because of the controversy and fraudulent work surrounding him, I would suggest that he be granted PGM Adjunct.

Makes sense. I asked for Richard Pomeroy to be protected because he was being merged with another Richard Pomeroy. This was the source of the confusion. Protecting Eltweed would further keep the wrong parents from being assigned. The problem comes from the large Pomeroy Book which tried to link Eltweed to the Pomeroy line which goes back to the Pomeroy who came with William the Conquerer and owned the castle.

I've protected him. His father is protected under the One Name study project; PGM will protect  an "adjunct" when there is not another project to protect it.
