Juturna, the Missing Sister

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Oh, that is so unfair! heh. Actually red hair would be in the mix 
also, (remembering that Fechin is Father Inire). 

Sorry about the goat, btw. My theory holds together pretty well for me 
but I understand it will be worthless for many others. 

Hair color must surely match and justify the geneology and I think it 
works like this:

Blonde Dorcas and her red haired husband have blonde Ouen as a son. Ouen 
and dark haired Catherine have twins, dark haired Severian and blonde 
Severa (Jolenta).

Dark haired Cyriaca and her red haired "uncle" have twins, Agia and 
Agilus. They have not just brown but reddish brown, "chestnut" hair.
