Relation to Liddon Lake?

He patented an automatic jack?[1] FloridaArmy (talk) 03:26, 1 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Was this his grandfather, father, or him? - He helped establish a cooperative to bring electricity to more Corinth residents.[2] FloridaArmy (talk) 17:05, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

That B.F. Liddon is the grandfather. Note in the 2nd source you link, one his sons is James O. which this B.F.'s father. S0091 (talk) 17:14, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@FloridaArmy see above and also I now see the dates about the electricity....1930's right? Yes, so it would be this B.F. not the grandfather (the grandfather married in 1826, so likely born around 1805...he'd be dead by 1930 for sure). S0091 (talk) 17:23, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
