From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Lindestz?

"John Lindestz Lindeman" is atypical. One would expect "Lindesz" or "Lindetsz" ("-sz" is short for "-szoon", the Dutch male patronym). Dysmorodrepanis 00:25, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Beatson and Wathen

Just follow the link. Wathen wrote : "From this circumstance, Governor Beatson supposed, that it might at one period have formed a high mountain on some immense tract of country now sunk in the water, together with the Islands of Ascension, Tristan da Cunha, Gough and Saxemberg, which constitute a chain of 1800 miles in length, and 500 in breadth." So it is Beatson, and not Wathen, who thinks about Saxemberg as a part of a former continent...as it is written in Beatson's text.
