Re name-origin of Merritt, British Columbia

edit

That article attributes Thomas Rodman's father William Hamilton Merritt as the namesake of the town in BC, but the BCGNIS reference says the individual in question was a mining engineer and seems to ahve still been alive in 1906....could there be a grandson of the same name? See this on the Merritt-town talkpage.Skookum1 (talk) 19:15, 12 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
