"During their expeditions he and Peary fathered children with Eskimo women that were discovered by S. Allen Counter in a Greenland expedition as they were in their eighties."
What does "as they were in their eighties" mean ? Who were in their eighties and what does this have to do with the discovery made by Allen Counter ? Jay 17:35, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I totally agree. I have removed the "in their eighties" phrase, and re-worked the lead paragraph to more accurately convey the doubt of Peary's claim.
[edit] Tutoring of Captain Childs
I added a paragraph of the tutoring of Captain Childs and the places that Henson sailed around the world. I forgot to sign in though, lol. SO the IP address was actually me.
This was the source I used, http://www.unmuseum.org/henson.htm
Can someone wikify it? It just doesn't sound right.--Vscel4 18:16, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
