If so they spelt honour incorrectly. Sorry Glen always at your expense. Actually weren't the grahams warriors, not spellers? Congratulations, as I recall I was with you when you signed up. You were quite excited at the time.
Enjoy being a member of your clan society. You will meet lots of interesting people and hear so many fascinating stories from others who are also members.
I really liked the membership paper/plaque you displayed to us. It's classy and a conversational piece.

I was a proofreader for 13 years, and I did not notice, but then I was just so happy to get it that I did not really look that closely yet, but I will bring it up with them.
Yes I was excited Grant and still am I think what I will do is to re-do it and send it to them.
As well you should. Being English we don't have clans or this sense of history. I might be a distant relative of the Harmsworth newspaper barrons from the turn of the last century and likewise the Harmsworth Trophy. Then again if I am then I'd be related to a nazi sympathizer at a time when Dad and his two brothers marched off to war. Would I be prepared for those skeletons?

As we say in genealogical circles, you can pick your nose, and you can pick your relative's nose, but you can't pick your relatives.
It could be worse.
I have an American-born friend, whose parents are both from Lithuanian families, but one is gentile and the other Jewish. It is not at all unlikely that some of her father's relatives murdered some of her mother's relatives in the Holocaust.
Last week I discovered that we are 8th cousins twice removed to Lyndon Baines Johnson. None of my relatives so far has been impressed. In fact they kind of moan on hearing the news. One calls him "that man from Texas."
Earlier this year I uncovered something scandalous about my grandparents and made the mistake of sharing it with a cousin who I thought was level-headed. She hasn't spoken to me nor my immediate family since.
