City Proper

[edit]

Maybe, it's because the maps are or so small, but how can English River, Saint Louis, and Mont Fleuri, be considered the city proper (city center), when as far as I can tell, not even one of them is contiguous with the other? From what I can tell, Bel Air seperates English River from Mount Fleuri, and St. Louis doesn't look like it borders either English River and definitely doesn't appear to border Mount Fleuri. --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:24, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There is a link to a real estate agent. Is this commercial advertisement, which should be avoided? Of course, it may also be of interest to people, but unfair to other real estate agents in the area and/or against Wikipedia policies. 82.83.142.103 (talk) 11:10, 1 June 2009 (UTC)Anonymous.[reply]

Name Victoria

[edit]

The section that states Victoria is named in 1814 is wrong! The town was called L'ETABLISSEMENT until 1841 and was renamed to Victoria in 1841. The British named it after Queen Victoria (born 1819!). Both sources (5&6) stated in that section do not mention anything about the name and the treaty of Paris in 1814. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.14.45.17 (talk) 23:15, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
