Shelpey, Rutan & Russell, Rutan & Coolidge confusion

the shepley link is for the wrong guy. Look at the date of death, it can't be the same person -The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kod2008 (talk) 04:31, 9 August 2008 (UTC).Reply

The reference to Rutan & Russell as developing from a branch office of Shepley, Rutan & Coolidge is confusing, although they were employed by SR&C.. The Rutan in this firm is the brother of the partner in SR&C. Rutan & Russell are more correctly identified as developing out of the Pittsburgh office of Longfellow, Alden & Harlow, two of whom worked for Richardson. Longfellow left Richardson before the formation of SR&C. Alden worked briefly for SR&C while they were completing the Richardson Courthouse in Pittsburgh.

I sometimes wonder about this. We have an article for Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge. Do we also need separate articles for each partner? The partners are only notable because of the work they did through their company. My tendency would be to just include a biography of the person in the company article, but I'm not sure what the policy is. -Kzirkel (talk) 12:52, 24 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
