Feedback on Verna Cook Garvan

Hi, Komadai. That article looks like a good start. One thing I would take a close look at is disagreement among your sources about various dates and specifics--you'll see I neded up changing 2 dates when adding sources. The Arkansas encyclopedia may not be the best source of info, so take a look at all the other sources you have available to see where they conflict and where they can corroborate the same info.

Hi, Komadai. I know the Encyclopedia of Arkansas refers to a "Wisconsin-Arkansas Lumber," but based upon a number of other sources, included three court cases that I found, corporate directories and an incorporation search through the Arkansas Secretary of State's Office, I changed it to "Wisconsin & Arkansas Lumber". I couldn't find any other reference to a hyphenated name for the company. Great to see you working on this biography.Arkoutdoors (talk) 19:03, 19 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
