Person talk:John Hosmer (5)


death date [22 June 2015]

I removed the death date of 27 Sep 1751 which was not explicitly sourced, but obviously bogus, based on his probate file. It appears to come from a Find A Grave memorial, which also quotes from an obelisk in Concord: "Although in arms at the Battle of Concord and a Soldier of the Continental Army, he was in all his life after a man of peace". This memorial page is clearly nonsensical as any person in the battle of Concord would have to be alive in 1775 and hence could not have died in 1751 as the page says. Clearly the said obelisk belongs to somebody else. --Jrich 03:36, 23 June 2015 (UTC)
