Daniel Coxe Jr. → Daniel Coxe IV – Source gives this name — Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:56, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
I just looked at the original version of Daniel Coxe by Charles Matthews. It is consistent with my source, which claims the Daniel Coxe described in that article is Daniel Coxe III. And yet the version of the Daniel Coxe article which was current a few minutes ago called him Daniel Coxe Jr., but his son is also called Daniel Coxe Jr. in the version of his own article which was current a few minutes ago, which makes no sense. My source calls him Daniel Coxe IV. As for verifying the information in my source, the author is deceased and wrote his article ten years ago. His newspaper republishes his old articles because people enjoy them.
I have corrected the link in the Daniel Coxe article to Daniel Coxe Jr..
After I checked the history of Daniel Coxe I went ahead and made the necessary corrections. It seemed an IP introduced the idea that the subject of that article was Coxe Jr. and the subject of the other article was Coxe III, but gave no source. I had a source for changing them to Coxe III and Coxe IV. The more controversial action will be to move Daniel Coxe Jr. to Daniel Coxe IV.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:01, 5 July 2021 (UTC)—Relisting.
