Harold is the great-great-grandson of George PINKERTON. The inspiration for Pinkerton Genealogy by Harold L. PINKERTON and his daughter, Sharon P. WAYLAND came from communication with Paul W. PINKERTON a distant cousin, and his daughter Helen P.RYDELL, who in 1984-1990 worked on mapping the various branches of PINKERTON cousins. Paul W.(now deceased) was the great-great grandson of Hugh Pinkerton.
