Death
editHer daughters were Powells according to the linked source on the article page: "The Janet G. Travell, M.D. Papers were donated to the Gelman Library University Archives in 1998 by her daughters, Virginia Powell Wilson and Janet Powell Pinci."
So it is very likely that she is the Janet Powell with the given date of birth as well as 1997 death and initial T for Travell found in Social Security Death Index:
JANET T POWELL 17 Dec 1901 01 Aug 1997 (V) 01060 (Northampton, Hampshire, MA) (none specified) 100-26-0925 New York

- I can't speak to the above comment, but while we are on the subject of her death.... It seems that few biographies include details of the death, unless the cause of death or other details are significant to their story. Except for the fact that she died fairly young, these details aren't significant. I propose deleting that sentence. Her year of death would be retained. Any objections? --Karinpower (talk) 02:07, 19 July 2014 (UTC)
Why call it a stub?
editI suggest this Article is the perfect template for a Wiki about a "relatively unknown" person. It is beautifully written. It is not repetitiously multi-authored.
I even gave it 5 stars for completeness--on the basis that her most possibly-important contributions are given hyper-link representation.
I assume the Article is trustworthy-- more on the basis that it is so well-expressed rather than it being massively multi-sourced.
A missing External link:
edithttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC152828/?tool=pmcentrez is an external link entitled:
Janet G. Travell, MD A Daughter's Recollection Virginia P. Wilson
that should be added to truly complete the Article. (I do not know how to append it-- and not sure about legal issues. I suppose you editors can link to copyrighted materials, but I wish to avoid it.)
The following is the actual (offline) source Journal:
Tex Heart Inst J. 2003; 30(1): 8–12. PMC 152828 Copyright © 2003 by the Texas Heart® Institute, Houston
(I believe I found the above nih.gov link in another Wikipedia Article, so if no one else inserts it, I will copy and paste the HTML-ish code from that source; and it will hopefully appear nicely formatted in this Article. Or whatever-- I can figure it out.)

- Done. Good suggestion. You're welcome to do this yourself. -- Brangifer (talk) 07:53, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
