Falsified Lineage

re: "Denys' daughter, Marguerite, married her cousin, James Forsyth, who was a captain in naval and land expeditions..."

Marguerite, the daughter of Nicolas Denys and Marguerite Lafitte, died in 1654, unwed, at the innocent age of eight... Another author, once a widely respected professional Genealogist, Charles Henry Browning, also perpetuated Forsyth's false Denys relationship, as well as other false lineages. Browning was a member of the racist organization which operated from 1880 to 1937 as the Aryan Order of America, which was founded by the above-noted, and equally corrupt, Forsyth. Browning's false lineages include Americans of Royal Descent." ^[5]

re: Author/fabulist Frederick Gilman Forsyth aka Forsyth de Fronsac

"From 1878 until his death in 1925, he published more than 30 books and articles in which he speaks at length about the Aryan Order and the College of Arms... Studies reveal that Frederick Gilman Forsyth advocated a monarchist, antidemocratic and racist-tinged ideology that underlied all his actions, both in the United States and Canada... The same blend of wild imagination and absolute disregard for consistency pervades the whole works of Forsyth de Fronsac, whether he revisits his life, the story of his family, or the history of North America..." ^[6]
