John Francis Winslow

Hello. For John Francis Winslow, do you have a reliable source documenting the middle name Francis? Most contemporary biographies and sources appear to call him simply "John Winslow", and thus Wikipedia should probably follow suit per WP:COMMONNAME, and to avoid possibly perpetuating errors. Cheers, --Animalparty! (talk) 03:40, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

This was a while ago so I'm not sure, but I must have gotten the name from https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/KHB8-6N1/john-francis-winslow-1802-1875. That does not list any source for the middle name, though, so it'd probably be best to remove his middle name. Lallint 17:37, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Bradley Winslow

Hello - As info, I did a quick look at the Bradley Winslow page and Battle of Cedar Mountain. I think the source on Winslow's page is actually page 203 instead of 202 for Cedar Mountain. Also, I don't think you can say he fought in the battle. He got there in time to assist in the retreat according to the source. Is he (or his regiment) in the Cedar Mountain Union order of battle? I could not find him. TwoScars (talk) 17:12, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

@TwoScars I've changed it using the source. Lallint 23:00, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
