Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Do you really trust Weis' work that much? Or is there another Weis who was active during that period whose genealogical works' accurarcy is often questioned? As I recall, the one I am thinking of attempted medieval genealogies quite a bit.
Just for fun, does he list Francis Fontaine, Williamsburg, Virginia, chaplain of the Virginia House of Burgesses, etc ?
Is there yet another genealogical society to join? Do they have a riband and medal? For some joining them is more addictive than kilts. (I, happily, have escaped that compulsion...so far.)
