Genealogy[edit]

This section seems inappropriate for the encyclopedia article about the mansion, as its importance is not related to any purported family issues, but to GW Adams and his brother's role in maintaining stations on the Underground Railroad, and on the house's architectural quality. No scholarly or even census sources are noted. I think it could all be deleted.--Parkwells (talk) 21:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the G.W. Adams section should necessarily be deleted, but I do think it should be moved to its own page. Todd Carnes (talk) 22:10, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

While there are many requests for cites, it looks as if most of the material comes from the nomination of the building to the National Register of Historic Places pie. Sources would be available in that document, probably to be found online. Editors should use those sources.--Parkwells (talk) 21:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can We Remove the Satanic Break in section?[edit]

I don't feel like this is in any way beneficial to the article itself. Cjones132002 (talk) 20:36, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dresden Suspension Bridge[edit]

Though the story that G.W. Adams had the original bridge designed by John Roebling, is a popular one among the locals here (I live one street over from Prospect Place), it has no basis in fact. I have re-written the section regarding the bridge to reflect the fact that the bridge was actually designed by Adams' nephew, George Copeland. I have included my source for this information as well - unlike the original author.

I think it's also instructive to note that the area on the opposite side of the bridge from Dresden is known today as Copeland's Woods as the land at that end of the bridge was originally owned by Adam's nephew. Todd Carnes (talk) 21:57, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
