After 11 attempts to register here under different names, we now have enough evidence to confirm that this is again Steven Aikens of Jasper AL. This time using an IP proxy in an attempt to hide his real location.

He favored his g-g-grandfather:

Aye, he did indeed, David. Strong Clann mhic Labhrainn genes.

It is certainly a small world. The Mclaurin family live here in Oxford. I won't be surprised to see an article in the evening newspaper now. Thanks for the added info. I'll be sure to give my condolences to the family if I see them.
