published more than 30 books and articles in which he speaks at length about the Aryan Order
and the College of Arms. Unfortunately, Forsyth was above all a literary man for whom the
romanticism of the story took precedence over the truth of facts... a true <i>mythomaniac</i> who constantly reinvented his biography and the history of his movement.
Therefore, it becomes imperative to check all his statements against independent sources,
consisting mainly of newspaper articles... not
easily accessible to researchers as they were not indexed or available through the Internet. In 2014, an article described how
Forsyth falsified the genealogy of two families in order to claim a noble ancestry. These studies reveal that Forsyth de Fronsac advocated a monarchist, anti-democratic and racist-tinged
ideology... </span><span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: x-small;"> In fact, the registers of Maine confirm his birth in Portland, but also reveal that his real name was Frederick Gilman Forsaith and that he was born on July 18, 1855.</span></span></blockquote></blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq"><blockquote><span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-small;">-Yves Drolet, <i>The Aryan Order of America and the College of Arms of Canada 1880 - 1937</i>.</span></span></blockquote><span style="font-size: xx-small;"></span></blockquote>
