Abandoned line

I am no longer researching this line.

This line was pursued as part of the long attempt to solve the Blennerhassett problem. Now that I have discovered my connection is through the Blennerhassett Baronets branch, this line is no longer relevant to my research. But I leave the work up as a contribution for other researchers.
