Ambiguity[edit]

"Later he made a number of forays into the corporate world," A foray is a short period of time being involved in an activity that is different from and outside the range of a usual set of activities. So, a foray as a cop or as a businessman? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Professor Bernard (talk • contribs) 20:52, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccurate information about spouses[edit]

It says that Eliot Ness was married from 1900-1988 but then later names several other marriages after the fact. He died in 1957. I can't verify the correct date for his first marriage but the present information is inaccurate. 107.4.50.234 (talk) 07:33, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The (1900-1988) detail is about the lifespan of Edna, not the marriage span. Grandpallama (talk) 13:59, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

John Angerola, George Angersoa[edit]

John Angerola, George Angersoa are these names correct, or misspellings of the same name? 62.245.230.90 (talk) 07:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
