  • " iron items like " -> " iron items including"


  • "Benjamin Franklin" link.


  • "Benjamin Franklin. He once loaned Franklin some money"... "Benjamin Franklin to whom he once made a monetary loan."


  • "Franklin repaid him with the design of the Franklin" -> "The debt was repaid by Franklin with the design of his eponymous stove"... just trying to avoid Franklin so many times in one sentence.


  • " One thing led to another" not encyclopedic in tone at all.


  • Where is DoB referenced.
  •   Done - At the bottom of page 376 of James (1874) reference. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 22:02, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply


  • "descendant of the seventeenth-century" well given he was born in the early 18th century, is it possible to say how "descended"? Richard Grace died only 18 years before Robert Grace was born...


  • "Baron of Courtstown" what/where is this?
  •   Done - At the top of page 376 of James (1874) reference.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 22:02, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply


  • Might be worth linking "invasion of Ireland".


  • "repaid in more ways than one" not encyclopedic in tone.


  • "Junto Club" is this notable?


  • "It was proposed" by whom?


  • "by Benjamin Franklin for" no need for first name.


  • "married Mrs. Rebecca Nutt" where I'm from, we don't put a period at the end of Mrs


  • "and Franklin. Franklin invented" repetitive.


  • Link "casting" appropriately.


  • "revolutionary" in what sense?!


  • "Grace was selling.." Grace sold...


  • "Franklin was advertising... " Franklin advertised...


  • "sold thru merchants" through.


  • Is there a "manufacturer" category appropriate here?


That's it, on hold. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:46, 11 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • "when he was a teenager " who, Franklin or Grace?
  • "iron bells were also made at this forge factory. An iron bell" bit clunky repetitive, can we rephrase to smooth it out with the repeat?
