Foremother[]

Whoever created this article, as well as Carbon Creek and T'Mir The term "second foremother" means "great-grandmother", not "great-great-grandmother as this article originally stated. First, T'Pol clearly states in the episode Carbon Creek that her "second foremother" means her "mother's mother's mother", which is clearly her great-grandmother. Second, Trip says "great-grandmother" later in the episode when referring to T'Mir. Third, this is also stated in the episode summary for Carbon Creek at StarTrek.com.

I have corrected this article and adjusted all the "foremothers" to "second foremothers", etc.

Furthermore, do we really need the list of non-Vulcan foremothers and forefathers, considering only the Vulcans seem to use this term and everyone else seems to use grandmother and grandmother?

somewhat in the same vein as the previous remark; I'm ok with the remark that there may exist something like a "forefather", but given the speculatory nature of that title, giving examples of forefathers really stretches it imo. -- Capricorn 01:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Oodles of references, which I realize many will not have relevant context, but may contribute to the relationships portion. --Alan del Beccio (talk) 18:18, June 9, 2017 (UTC)
