 Who got what in the sale of Wired | CNET News.com
Wired founders Louis Rossetto and Jane Metcalfe, whose pioneering Internet business was sold in pieces last year, each received a severance package of $1.5 million as a result of the planned buyout of Wired Digital by Lycos, according to a regulatory filing today.
The Securities and Exchange Commission filing also disclosed that the deal with Lycos ran into trouble along the way: Last fall Rossetto and Metcalfe questioned whether Lycos was paying enough for their company, and talks temporarily broke off before a deal was completed by year's end.
The sale dismantled the company started by Rossetto and Metcalfe in 1993 as a trailblazing publisher and self-proclaimed citadel of the "digital revolution." Publishing and technology circles were rife with rumors about tumultuous battles behind the company's failure to go public, a long-time goal of its founders.

 FGR of Thomas Metcalf & Jane Gill
This John Meggitt is known to be the son of John Meggitt and Elizabeth Metcalf, thus proving that the Elizabeth Metcalf who married John Meggitt is Thomas' mother (why else would we be doing her son John's temple work?).
It is documented that Elizabeth Gill who was born 25 Jun 1798 in York is Jane's sister and it is documented that Elizabeth's parents were John Gill and Ann Thornton.
John Edward Metcalf Jr, who did the work in the Manti Temple, was 9 at the time of Edward Gill's death… Perhaps he misunderstood Edward Gill (after whom he seems to be named) to be his great grandfather instead of his great uncle.
