[edit]

William Carey is also the name of an influential law professor, best known as a critic of Delaware's dominance in the chartering of corporations in the US. You can see him prominently referenced here http://scholarship.law.wm.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1218&context=facpubs for example. I'm going to include him on this list, even though there seems not to be an article for him yet. --Christofurio (talk) 21:11, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Carey The discussion of William Carey's family life seems very incomplete, not citing any scholarly references, and actually seems very judgmental and biased with no solid support to back up these claims. It seems to be blaming William Carey for having bad children, when it is also widely known William Carey's wife had mental and/or emotional problems, and she would also have influence on raising her children. This page does not even seem to address her at all, so that information is also lacking. I personally don't know the scholarly resources to back this up, but anyone who has studied about William Carey in much depth should be able to cite such things, also his first wife's mental problems is frequently noted in reference to Mr. Carey, and the Wikipedia should also have that information. One other note, William Carey's second wife also may be of interest, she seems to have been a diplomatic woman of some influence. Further information on her would also be needed for a more comprehensive page of William Carey.
