Talk:Edward Shippen III

Incorrect title

[edit]

"III" is not part of Edward Shippen's name. He is the third Edward Shippen in the American branch of the Shippen family, but only the second to have a WP article. His grandfather was the first Edward Shippen in America, and his uncle was the second. In a similar situation, I have included birth/death dates in the article title to distinguish between the subjects. I propose to do that here, renaming this article Edward Shippen (1703-1781). The same fix can be applied to Edward Shippen, IV. Any objections, editors? WCCasey (talk) 21:14, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
