I found out through a museum director who actually knew James Norman Hall, a WWI pilot associated with the Lafayette Escadrille, that 'his' picture on Wikipedia is actually of another Escadrille pilot, Bert Hall (whose face, I have to admit, was more distinctive) It's hard enough to track down and correct textual errors, but how would anyone who didn't know one or both ever realize the picture was the wrong person? Makes you wonder how many errors of that type are out there which will never be known.

'Rather than rely on Wikipedia as the final word on topics I’m researching, I use their references to track down original or highly authoritative sources.' Good recommendation. On the other hand, Wikipedia does seem responsible in citing its sources, so it may be wise to check those links for double reference.Īethelthryth from American Southwest on January 13, 2016: I've been advised way back not to use Wikipedia as a source, that it is not the first place to go. I have deleted Ben Wade of Ohio and Frederick Douglass from this list, because they were definitely not at this Convention in August I suspect there are other names that are listed there incorrectly.ĭavid Stewart. The list of attendees in this article seems to have people from both events. That was a group that completely opposed the folks at the national Union Convention in August.

The evident author of this entry has a separate statement that he/she fears he/she has conflated two events - as indeed he/she has. I'm going to leave it as is for now, but also wanted to leave a note for anyone who might have more knowledge about this. I haven't been able to find a good summary of the situation-only passing references here and there-usually only in the form of so and so was a delegate to either the National Union Convention or the Loyalist Convention of 1866 in Philadelphia. I fear I may have conflated two events-there may have been separate conventions in Philadelphia for pro-Johnson and anti-Johnson factions in the summer of 1866.
