I've never faulted KLS for the things in My Scrapbook Memories because those were her memories, and as you say, memory is a fleeting thing. (Though I do get pissed when other writers use that book as a source and treat what's written as gospel because then all her faulty memories get expressed as facts. And now I understand that a good deal of the text of that book has been included in Return To Collinwood, so others will probably look on what's included as even more of a definitive source, which it is not. ) But there's really absolutely no excuse IMO for the myriad of errors in, say, the almanacs because, as you say, with a simple bit of fact checking they could have all been easily avoided.
