Talk:Jane Lane, Lady Fisher

Have we forgotten all about references & verification?

Here's this nice long article that is so lacking in references and verification that it doesn't even have a references section.

All over Wikipedia, I see articles littered with "citation needed" tags that aren't needed at all, and here's this one skating by with nothing.

Quite correct and how it gained a B class is beyond me. IO have added the reflist and verified at least one source to my knowledge. Time permitting I will try and add citations where at all possibloe form the sources I have.Argrogan (talk) 17:12, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

I'm very glad you have been able to take this article in hand. Much of the material you need is available at archive.org or on Google Books. Try these for starters. The strings at the end are archive.org identifiers. Broadley - 1912 Royal miracle (Alexander Meyrick Broadley, S. Paul & Co., 1912 cu31924028039877) Blount - 1894 (Blount, Charles G.

Which Yarmouth? (section Lane's exile)

Before Bentley Hall was searched, she left, walking to Yarmouth posing as a "country wench" and travelled to France. She arrived in Paris in December 1651 and was welcomed by the Court in exile

In the first sentence "Yarmouth" is wikilinked to Great Yarmouth in Norfolk. However I question the confidence it is the East Anglian Yarmouth as it would have required a journey almost across England to the coast of Norfolk, whereas Yarmouth, Isle of Wight was closer geographically to where the King had embarked for France. East Anglia was also more staunchly Parliamentarian territory, so a place of questionable safety for a Royalist to flee into. What do published histories identify as the Yarmouth in this context?Cloptonson (talk) 06:42, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
