Image removed from article
[edit]I have removed a photograph from this article. It is my contention that this image (which is the first image on the left of the photos below) which is labeled at Commons and on Wikipedia as "Home where Jessamine Barkley was born near Danville, Kentucky", was added to this article on Edward William Cornelius Humphrey in error. The image appears to be a vintage photograph of Mount Vernon taken from the downhill side to the left of the house as it faces the Potomac. See gallery below:

"Home where Jessamine Barkley..."

Vintage photo from 1921 edition of Collier's Encyclopedia

- Wow! That certainly seems to be the case, Shearonink. I have no idea how that misconception on my part happened. Thank you for catching the error. I appreciate your removing it.--Mitzi.humphrey (talk) 22:55, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
- Cool, yeah mistakes happen. I just looked at the photo and thought "...hmmm...unless the Barkleys built an exact duplicate complete with how the house is situated on that hill overlooking the Potomac..." Shearonink (talk) 19:17, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
- Good catch, Shearonink. Should we request that the file be deleted - since it is mis-named? --MelanieN (talk) 15:26, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- I am not as familiar with Commons processes...maybe? There should be a drop-down menu or some instructional pages over there for this type of issue. Sorry to not be of more help. It is possible that the photo could be of use in Commons if it had a correct title, and if the photo could be dated. Shearonink (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
