Military Order of William / Military William Order

[edit]

The article mentions an order being provided by the King of the Netherlands, which then links to the Military Order of William. It abbreviates (the same as the source does) I cannot find any other reference to this knighthood online, nor can I find this abbreviation in use to refer to this particular order. Might be that two orders are being confused? effeietsanders 14:41, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Boleyn: As you introduced this fact at creation (based on the source), perhaps you know more of the context. Thanks! effeietsanders 14:42, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Effeietsanders, the source I used was the 1911 Dictionary of National Biography, and if you can't find another source confirming this, it may be that the source is out-of-date/wrong. It's pretty reliable, but there are errors. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 19:08, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
