Verify where Horace Carpenter was born

The wiki states he was born in Grand Rapids Michigan but the Find a Grave listing shows Sauk Rapids Minnesota as well as siblings being born there. It’s doubtful he was born in Grand Rapids Michigan unless someone can provide an accurate citation reference. Polarize1 (talk) 03:43, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Polarize1, Find a Grave is not a reliable source for content in Wikipedia articles because it is WP:USERGENERATED. You wrote, "It’s doubtful he was born in Grand Rapids Michigan unless someone can provide an accurate citation reference." The article already contains a citation to a source that states Grand Rapids, Michigan, (and other biographical data). Are you saying that the cited source is not reliable?
