I am interested in correcting your sly poke in my direction when you stated (falsely) that the "other three" Mansfields were named after your Mansfield. First of all, there are many more than three Mansfields. Check wikipedia, for crying out loud. More importantly -- and you would know this if (a) you had read certain past posts of mine and (b) your memory was not beginning to fail -- my Mansfield (the one in Teas) was not named after the Mansfield in England. Originally it was not even Mansfield, it was Mansfeild, a community that grew up around the grist mill operated by Ralph S. Man and Julian Feild. Repeated misspellings over the years and assumptions such as yours have brought it to where it is today, f-i-e-l-d and presumed by all to have been named after your Mansfield.<br /><br />Yours for accuracy in blogposting,<br />"Senior blogger" Rhymes rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-31462431467916851472015-01-09T13:19:00.398+00:002015-01-09T13:19:00.398+00:00I know it is a generalisation AJ but obesity, diab...I know it is a generalisation AJ but obesity, diabetes and other effects of poor diet and lack of exercise are more prevalent in poorer communities.
