Correction of a date

[edit]

I believe that this sentence from the page should be corrected by eliminating the words in brackets & CAPS: "The Merriam family were printers, book manufacturers, and booksellers in Worcester County [IN THE LATTER PART OF THE 18TH CENTURY."] The rest of the article states that George's father was a farmer and his uncle (whom he worked for) a PRINTER. And George was born in 1803 -- so I find it confusing that the 18th century in mentioned at all. Ecw4w44 (talk) 19:11, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Title of the page

[edit]

Should the article be about George Merriam alone? It also deals with Charles Merriam in equal measure. May be the title of the page should be changed to George & Charles Merriam. Indeed that was the link on the Noah Webster page that brought me here. --Gurubrahma (talk) 03:21, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
