A fact from Robert Meeropol appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 17 October 2005. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Robert Meeropol, son of Communists Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, was adopted by "Strange Fruit" lyricist Abel Meeropol following the Rosenbergs' execution for espionage?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2005/October.

The second paragraph doesn't make sense. First it says where they stayed during trial and executions, Then later, after several changes in custody, it has them visiting their parents in Sing Sing. IMHO, This tragic story deserves better clarity on this one aspect. Vaoverland 18:15, 15 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Children's Home

Surely "Hebrew's Children Home" is a typo and should be "Hebrew Children's Home". But I lack a citation for this at all at the moment. The article has no inline references, so it is very hard to know where to look. - Jmabel | Talk 05:44, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Someone should tell Robert

""To this day, there is no credible evidence that he participated in obtaining or passing on ... the secret of the atomic bomb, the crime for which he was executed."" I think the crime they were actually executed for was espionage and treason... not a specific piece of information. So... settles that then.
