Clarification about founder?

[edit]

This article says, "The group was founded by violinist Felix Weir ...". Unfortunately, the web page used in the citation apparently no longer exists; as I write this comment, the link leads to a page that says, "Click here to buy ENCLycoPedia.com for your website name!"

Meanwhile, the Wayne State University Press publication Lost Plays of the Harlem Renaissance, 1920-1940 says of Francis Hall Johnson, "In 1923, he organized and led the Negro String Quartet."[1] Perhaps someone with more resources than I have can look into this discrepancy and edit the article, if necessary, for clarification.Eddie Blick (talk) 02:46, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
