The article says, "Sedgwick was born in Norwich, Norfolk in 1854, the son of Rev Richard Sedgwick, vicar of Dent, Yorkshire and his wife Mary Jane, daughter of John Woodhouse of Bolton-le-Moors, Lancashire." and the reference agrees. But it's a real puzzle to me that the child of a father working in Yorkshire and a mother coming from Lancashire should be born in Norfolk. It would be nice if someone could explain how this came about. Budhen (talk) 18:28, 19 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
