Sir Robert Liston

[edit]

The article lists Sir Robert Liston as being ambassador from 1794-95, yet links to an article about the surgeon Robert Liston who was born in 1794. Unless he learned English and Turkish pretty early in life then I'd assume this wasn't the same person! I believe they were both from the Kirkliston area though, so are likely related. Incidentally I believe that the ambassador Robert Liston lived 1742-1836. I'm not sure if I know enough about this subject though to construct a proper edit, so will post here for now, and mibbe do a bit of research. Rossclark 00:13, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The link to Louis Mallet is to the wrong person. 195.14.77.182 (talk) 15:46, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
