A History of the Bank of North America, published in 1882 does not list John Barker Church as a director or include the name as having any relationship to the bank. BobBlooms (talk) 02:29, 7 June 2010 (UTC) John Barker Church used an alia of John B. Carter. BobBlooms (talk) 03:08, 7 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

In his biography of Hamilton, Ron Chernow mentions Church as one of the two largest shareholders of the Bank of North America in 1783, but not as a director or bank official.WCCasey (talk) 03:31, 3 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

I placed the 'citation needed' template after the assertion that Church duelled with Aaron Burr in 1799. I have not seen that information anywhere else. Ron Chernow (again in the Hamilton bio) states that Church left England following a duel. Maybe that was the previous duel involving the famous pistols?WCCasey (talk) 03:31, 3 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

No mention of slave-owning. I feel that this category should be restricted to people whose slave-owning history was notable in itself. Valetude (talk) 15:19, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
