Birthdate

Admin: Do you remember where you got the 1861 birthdate? This source gives 1861. Just wondering. — dscosson • talk  23:32, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

Did I find that date? I can't recall, and looks like you made that edit here. — admin • talk  04:51, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Citing family accounts?

Do we have a way of citing information sourced by family members/descendants? Bliss' grandson has provided me with some good information, and in doing so, cited a few newspaper articles, but some of the info is unsourced. — dscosson • talk  13:32, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

I'd just put it in a normal ref tag with some explanation, e.g. <ref>As per information provided by John Doe, subject's grandson.</ref>. — admin • talk  14:08, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Mayoral dates

According to newspaper reports, Bliss was Mayor at the time of his death in 1907. — dscosson • talk  13:47, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
