Note on birthplace

edit

Regarding the discrepancy between where sources say Madison was born: Rockingham County didn't yet exist; it was later carved out of the vast expanse of Augusta County. Presumably he was born in that part of Augusta that became Rockingham. —Kevin Myers 22:29, 25 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the info. I've changed the text to reflect your explanation, which I consider likely. I've left the explanatory note just in case we are wrong. Acdixon (talk contribs count) 22:39, 25 January 2009 (UTC)Reply
