Birth date[edit]

Some references have him being born on December 12, while others say December 21. Anyone have any idea how to resolve this? -- Rick Block (talk) 23:00, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And multiple users keep changing the birth year to 1940. Most sources say 1941. If you think it should be 1940, please cite your source. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:28, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lincoln University location: Missouri[edit]

Lincoln University is not in Pennsylvania. It is located in Missouri. This should be checked and corrected. 2600:8805:9A80:241:D420:DA87:AC6:F7DD (talk) 03:09, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
