Conlan or Conlon?
[edit]His name is listed consistently as "John F. Conlan" in Walker, Brian M, ed. (1992). Parliamentary election results in Ireland, 1918-92. Dublin: Royal Irish Academy. ISBN 0 901714 96 8. ISSN 0332-0286. (on pages 218, 226, 229, 237, and 245).
However, Walker's book is not perfect (e.g. it entirely omits the Dublin Central constituency in 1989, page 271), so I thought it would help to cross-check against the clerk's report at the start of each Dáil of the returning officers' reports of TDs elected. Unfortunately, these pages are inconsistent:
Year | Link | Name |
---|---|---|
1969 | 2 July 1969 | John F. Conlan (with an "A") |
1973 | 14 March 1973 | John F. Conlan (with an "A") |
1977 | 5 July 1977 | John F. Conlon (with an "O") |
1981 | 30 June 1981 | John F. Conlan (with an "A") |
1982 (Feb) | 9 March 1982 | John F. Conlon (with an "O") |
1982 (Nov) | 14 December 1982 | John F. Conlon (with an "O") |
So I have asked the Oireachtas webmaster whether there is a more definitive answer. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 21:47, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
- Currently the article is at John Conlan and all references in the text are to Conlon. Very inconsistent. Snappy (talk) 00:05, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
