pronunciation #1[edit]

Does anyone know who this Cockburn Town is named after? The one in the Bahamas is named after Francis Cockburn. FiggyBee 14:48, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone else? It's a good question. --AW (talk) 16:19, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Population[edit]

Something in regards to the proportional population should be included at your convienance. I can add something if you want. --216.229.227.143 (talk) 19:34, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

pronunciation #2[edit]

Cockburn is normally pronounced "coe-burn". Is this one really "coke-burn"? The fact tag has been up for quite a while. kwami (talk) 00:25, 5 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ref'd. It is COE-burn. kwami (talk) 07:30, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

National Museum[edit]

The article leaves the museum sounding very limited. If I recall correctly, there is much more on display there besides a lone shipwreck.--TampAGS (talk) 05:14, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
