The statement that Dyer was elected to the Continental Congress in 1774 "as the Revolution began" is incorrect since the outbreak of hostilities did not begin until the next year. This needs to be researched and corrected. Dyer's faithfulness to "the cause" is not in question, though his designation as Founding Father is. The latter depends to some degree on the outcome of the current (April-May 2022) RFC. Perhaps sources can be found to support this designation. Equally important, this bio needs to be expanded. At present, it's a bit more than a stub. Allreet (talk) 04:06, 28 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
For additional background on Dyer: Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, 1879. To download the article, you need full access to JSTOR, which is offered to Wikipedia editors who qualify. Otherwise, you can set up a free account with JSTOR that at present allows access to 100 articles per month. In this case, however, you can read articles but you cannot download them.

None that I know of. Thanks for pinging me. Must have missed him while recently removing Founding Father status from the others unfounded by an RfC, and I'll get right on to the formal unfounding. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:21, 7 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
