T.H.G. Newton

[edit]

Hi! I see you are making a lot of additions to the entry for my great-grandfather Goodwin (his son Mark was my grandfather). I just wondered what is your interest in the family, and whether you might be a distant relation of mine? [[User:Molly Romanov|Molly Romanov]] (talk) 06:54, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Molly Romanov: Hello. No personal family connection. I actually arrived at Horace Newton because of a connection with the Storrs family there; and that came out of the PROD nomination you can see above which had me checking on the Wilton family. Just a Sunday morning diversion (from Draft:Brewin Grant, which I should finish). On the Goodwin Newton article, some serious cleanup was needed, and I have an approach that says that fact-checking an article is best done by expanding it.
Generally speaking I'm positive about family history here, but it does need to be done to standard and kept under control. Charles Matthews (talk) 07:10, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
