I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

He retired as director of the White House Gift Unit in 1993 to devote himself to his interest in genealogy and the preservation of his Civil War period home on Capitol Hill, which his parents bought shortly after his birth. At the 2017 BookFest, Charles will deliver the inaugural Michael Fry Memorial Talk on Local History. The talk was made possible through the generous donation of the Friends of Michael Fry.
