William H. Holland (politician)
Added details about the school the Holland brothers attended. I have doubts that William actually attended Oberlin, but I've left it in. The only real evidence I've seen is that they attended this school run by Oberlin alumni.Tag: Visual edit

Grand Army of the Republic
→History: Corrected the error in the wording that implied that there were few black soldiers in the Civil War that received pension, when in fact there were probably more than 100,000 who did. Anyone who has done African American genealogical research knows what a treasurer trove these files can be.Tag: Visual edit

Buddy Foster
Added his wife’s name and their children’s names with a reference. This should be in a new section entitled Personal Life, but I was unable to create it. I was only able to edit the first section. Perhaps someone with more editing privileges can create the new section and put this information in it.Tags: RevertedVisual editMobile editMobile web edit

Ohio University
Corrected the original name of the university; it was American Western University not American University. Also, added further information about the Sleeper Bill that gave regular state funding to the university for the first time, and made the description of the Ohio Legislature's actions in the 1870s more accurate.Tag: Visual edit

The Eton Boys
Took the word jazz out of the description of this quartet, as none of the songs listed in their repertoire would be classified as jazz. There might be another adjective that would be more descriptive, but I’ll leave that to others.Tag: Visual edit
