However by strange coincidence, which might be a red-herring, I came across the following on SP and it might be one for Forfarian?
I'm flattered but why specifically me?

But I didn't solve it!

You're doing well. That does look very convincing.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
