Talk:John Lathrop
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I noticed that the ancestrial history of President John F. Kennedy was reasonably well documented in Wikipedia, even though possibly only his father Joseph P. Kennedy among his ancestors would rate an individual article for noteworthy accomplishment.
However, since Wikipedia is not limited to those of noteworthy accomplishment, but also to those of reference interest, I do feel it is entirely appropriate to include JFK's grandfather and those further back.
Thus, if such inclusions are appropriate, inclusion of a common ancestor of at least four known U.S. Presidents would likewise be appropriate.
[edit] Lothropp
His name was John Lothropp. Lathrop is a more modern spelling of his surname. There is a more accurate artiicle at John Lothropp I suggest this spelling of his name be forwarded to that article with a reference to his genealogical significance added there. Any objections? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jonathan.lathrop (talk • contribs) 04:36, 12 February 2007 (UTC).
