:@[[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]] The source cited does say that his mother died when he was 14, but [https://jefferson.nygenweb.net/samuelwinslowp.htm this source] says she died in 1843, which would've placed bradley at 12 years old at the time of her death.

I'll take a look at this over the coming week. Hog Farm Talk 19:32, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I ran a quick check on Wikipedia Library JSTOR and Project MUSE and I'm not seeing any obvious major coverage of Winslow that is being excluded.

  • Warner needs page number(s) specified
  • "In 1851 and 1852, he studied at Falley Seminary" - this isn't right. Oakes has him studying at Falley in 1850 and 1851 and Durant & Pierce has him at Falley the winter of '50-51 and then at home until 1852
  • " On December 1, 1847, Winslow began attending Cazenovia College" - source indicates this is an approximate date, not an exact one
  • "Winslow began to study law in the office of James F. Starbuck in autumn of 1853." - Oakes p. 295 does not give this date, and I'm not seeing anything related to this on Emerson p. 165. Do you possibly mean to cite Durant & Pierce p. 202?
  • "In 1859, Winslow was nominated to be district attorney of Jefferson County, New York, and was elected on January 1, 1861" - he was elected in 1859, not nominated, per Durant & Pierce and Haddock. The 1/1 date is when he took office. Durant & Pierce have 1861 but I think this is an error based on them next saying he served until 1861. Haddock has 1/1/1860 and Matthews also has 1860.
  • I'd move the info about his mom dying and him moving in with an uncle up to the early life section, as they seem relevant there.

@Hog Farm The source cited does say that his mother died when he was 14, but this source says she died in 1843, which would've placed bradley at 12 years old at the time of her death. The book is a more reliable source than the site, though, so I'm not quite sure what to do. I've completed all of the changes and moved the moms death to the early life section for now.
