The article called them "an originally Jewish family"; I removed "originally" because I can find no indication that they were not Jewish at the time. If anyone has a reference for the original phrasing, please revert -- but cite the reference! Languagehat (talk) 15:26, 25 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

@Youssef Ahmed Mo: The text has said One of these, which he discovered and named, was the plague vector flea, Xenopsylla cheopis, also known as the oriental rat flea, which he collected at Shendi, Sudan, on an expedition in 1901, publishing his finding in 1903.[4] since 2006 from this edit. Unfortunately the source for this is dead, and this story is implausible anyway since he named it after an Egyptian pyramid (or its Egyptian owner) rather than a Kushitic one. I'm inclined to believe he found it in Egypt but there are no sources for any of this. Invasive Spices (talk) 16:45, 6 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
