I have this feeling there is a *lot more* about him in the archives, especially if one were willing to dig into envoy reports from the eastern colonies. Not my area, alas*, but maybe if I publish the Keith bio, I can interest someone else in him. I bet a sufficiently dedicated researcher could write a biography of *this* guy. A novel! A screenplay!
* Coming from the same person who said she'd never be able to decipher handwriting, never say never!
