• Looks like these are the same person. Danrok (talk) 21:29, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

• Yes, they are, and the 2nd article should indeed be merged into this one.Eustachiusz (talk) 16:38, 24 July 2016 (UTC)

• I disagree as to which should be merged into which. The other is far richer in content. This one is only a copy of what's in the Encyclopedia Britannica, without even looking at the references (which are all incomplete). --Vicedomino (talk) 06:15, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

• I would recommend the merging of the two articles, with this article being the survivor of the merge. However, I must warn that this article is a translation of the same topic on the French Wikipedia, which has not been acknowledged, according to WP copyright regulations. See: WP:TFOLWP. --Vicedomino (talk) 07:12, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

• Agree with User:Eustachiusz, if only because retaining "baron des Adrets" in the title will help distinguish it from any other F. Beaumonts that may pop up. None of the rich content need be lost in a merge. Mannanan51 (talk) 02:38, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Further Reading

I tagged the one item in "Further Reading". I know I didn't use the right template or tag, because there is none that covers the situation. An unpublished thesis is recommended for further reading. No bibliographical information is given. I have searched the author and title in various ways through Google, and Google Books, and come up with nothing, except this article and its clones. How can one read it if one cannot find it? I notice that the author is a "Fr. Sean O'Driscoll". I would like to know whether Father O'Driscoll is neutral and objective, or partisan. I considered tagging it as "self-published", but that doesn't quite fit.

Since it is an incomplete reference, and is stated to be unpublished, I recommend deleting it.
