Talk:Jennie Wade

Slight changes

edit

I added a couple notes concerning Wade as the only civilian killed during the battle (which is correct); however, other civilians died because of the battle. Also, I added a footnote on the fatal bullet—no one for sure knows who fired it. Also, her family referred to her as "Ginnie," not "Jenny" or "Jennie" as now is common.

The house where Jennie Wade was killed is open in Gettysburg for viewing and it is known as the "JENNIE WADE HOUSE".76.181.68.170 00:11, 5 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Jack Skelly > Johnston Skelley

edit

There's a referenced article on Wikipedia called Jack Skelly with a reference.

The recent change to Johnston Skelley, however, does not.

Reverted information back to the previous revision until references are provided with the correct name.

Referenced this here, for if the name is correct (as Johnston Skelley), it might be wise to update that article also.

According to this uncited website, his name was Johnston Hastings "Jack" Skelly, Jr., but it is not information I have found elsewhere. Hal Jespersen (talk) 22:21, 13 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
