[edit] John Mac Street
Was prodded as hoax and nonsense but was removed. Seems to fail WP:BIO as the only claim to "fame" is that "John Mac Street has many descendents, and many live in Buchanan County, Virginia. At least Three forths (3/4) of the population there are related to John Mac Street." And a question that arises from this...if this is actually real and not a hoax, does writing about one's ancestors qualify as vanity? Metros232 15:46, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
How so if I have many Sources for it that point out to a John Mac Street of the Second Virginia Charter of London? Also, here is a web site that points out to him, http://www.law.ou.edu/ushistory/vchart2.shtml. This is no hoax, after all, its just good o'l history. And also, many people have articles that have ancestors that point to far back royalty like for say, William the Conqueror but does that make it vanity? No. Also, type in a google search (with quotations) "John Streate" or "Second Virginia Charter"+"John Streate". There might not be enough searches but its the same as not having enough seaches for "1st monarch of Ireland". I don't mean to start a fight but I'm just showing you the truth.
- No mention is made of a "John Mac Street" (or of a Mac or a Street) in the link provided. —Cuiviénen 16:10, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
