Isaac Sears[edit]

I was doing some research to clear this up...there are sources that have him being born elsewhere, but then having his parents move to Norwalk when he was young (prob. related to the disputed '29 or '30 birth year). It's then mentioned as a boy he worked in selling shellfish in the area. So although it's not for certain whether he was *born* in the city, he at least grew up there. I changed his entry to reflect this, though I'm not sure if wrote it to my liking, please feel free to reword it if you'd like. TJ0513 17:55, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Andy-rooney on 60 minutes.jpg[edit]

Image:Andy-rooney on 60 minutes.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Sarah Kemble Knight[edit]

This article currently mentions: "Sarah Kemble Knight (1666-1727), a preacher, school mistress and traveler who, in 1704, traveled alone on horseback from Boston to New York. She later settled in Norwalk." She travelled from Boston to New York in 1704-1705, hence it seems likely that she at least rode her horse through Norwalk (as did George Washington). But her wikipedia biography and a supporting reference mention that she settled in New London after a daughter relocated there and Sarah is buried in New London. Can anyone find a reference that claims she resided in Norwalk? 67.86.73.252 (talk) 00:38, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Originally, I'd made it a list of people associated with Norwalk in some way. Now I think that's kind of lame. I wouldn't have any objection to someone removing her name. Noroton (talk) 02:00, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
She has been removed. 67.86.73.252 (talk) 03:13, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
