Is there a chance to get the article scanned in from you?

Not having read the article, it might be worth thinking about what the author means by 'something x is an ancestor to something y'. (His words or yours?)

Just in case he wants to say that some historical thing x is similar to what is called nowadays "doughnut", quoting a passage about x is documenting that opinion, if the quoted passage supports the claim of similarity.

There is one google passage of this word form which might be relevant.

Do you think that Krapfen is an ancestor to doughnut?
