Talk:Immaculate Conception Cathedral, Georgetown

I think the names of two of the members of the committee have been scrambled some how. Franchland perhaps should be Frankland. Other sources include a CF Milne, who seems to have been associated with plantation Malgre Tout.. Is the version here from a Dutch language source?Dalcross72 (talk) 17:39, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

Returning to the names after nearly a year and a half , and looking again at the printer's pie offered, it's clear that there should have been a comma after Manget. who is known from other sources, including the Vade Mecum for the colony which can be found online. "Mibre" I would suggest is a mistranscription of "Milne", about whose son, Alexis-Francois Fr JT Hynes has a bitl to say in his journal.. I propose to edit accordingly, unless anyone objects.Delahays (talk) 11:17, 26 September 2016 (UTC)

Having edited the names of the Catholic Committee, it strikes me that if the source for the names who made the request in 1819 could be given, and if it includes Milne, that would be valuable, as Charles Foxlow Milne ( confirmed by Fr JT Hynes's diary to have been French) is an obscure figure who is mentioned in print in the 1820s in Demerara accessibly only in the Demerara Vade-Mecum of 1825. He received slave compensation for Malgre Tout plantation in the early 1830s, but in 1825 he had not owned it, and is recorded in London arriving from Antwerp, with Frenc citizenship, in 1839. His militia status in 1825 was Second Lieutenant, which might suggest he had not been in the colony for very long.Delahays (talk) 10:11, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Accidentally I came across the probable source for the names of the committee as originally given here- an article in the Guyana Chronicle from 2003 (url:- http://www.landofsixpeoples.com/news301/nc3020913.htm). This confirms my suggestion that misprints are present - I seem not to have completely eliminated one. Franchland (in the original Wikipedia text and the Guyana Chronicle article) shoud probably be Frankland amd not Franckland as I have amended it - there certainly was a Demerara commercial figure of the 1820s named Frankland. I suspect the Guyana Chronicle writer got the names as they were in 1830, not 1819, and if he did no conclusions can be drawn about Charles Foxlow Milne having been in Demerara in 1819 - comtemporary records don't have him until the publication of the 1825 Demerara and Essequibo Vade-Mecum.Delahays (talk) 02:27, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
