ChallengeAZ 2017—A Bangle Dictionary | L for Law

For all these ancestors we have never met, we might come up with a clue or two about their traits of personality. Take John Bangle for example. Don’t you think the guy had an aversion to authority? Thanks to the laws in place and the documents left behind for future generations to enjoy, we know that John was sued by his brother-in-law for not having reimbursed him; that he didn’t care much for the Invalid Establishment’s rules in Sorel by failing to show up for the muster roll; and that he murdered a private in his later years.
