Painter wasn't born in Ireland, but in Triadelphia, Maryland. Currently awaiting final external confirmations before editing. Songofachilles (talk) 13:58, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
- Somebody should probably tell BMI then, but you are 100% right according to his obituary. Sauzer (talk) 18:12, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
- And according to a book written about Painter by his own son! I don't know where him being an Irish immigrant comes from. I will tell BMI. Thanks for letting me know.Songofachilles (talk) 22:25, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
- Update: BMI are going to edit the information on their website. And I also contacted Lemelson-MIT who have edited their page on Painter. Thanks again! Songofachilles (talk) 21:40, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
