Ken

Hope all well with you.

I am completing my book on William Blackmore and wanted to check a couple of things with you.

Did you put up the note about William being an opium addict - there is a reference to correspondence from living members of the Blakcmore family.

Also, in Brayer there are several illustrations taken from a Blakcmore family album. I have presumed that this was in the possession of Vanderveer Boyle in Santa Fe. The Boyle family seem to have disappeared off the planet and I have not been able to locate any recent reference to living Boyles. Do you happen to know whether there are 19th century photographs from William's lifetime still in the family?

Best regards

Anthony

In the future, while a draft is marked as "under review" you would do well to leave it alone lest you cause an edit conflict. I have now marked the page as "in-use" as it's undergoing a rewrite. If my changes are an issue for you please let me know. Chris Troutman (talk) 04:11, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Chris, when I posted it stated that it likely wouldn't be reviewed for three weeks so I started to add a few other items. I realize now that when I finished I should have just noted the additions to be made later. Thanks for all the rework you did, the article looks great!

Yes, Chris, I am interested in nominating the article for consideration for DYK. I've just sent a request to an archivist at Brandon University for an image of John Robbins to add to the article. (I'll also contact John's relative to see if she can share a photo.) I'll try to get one as soon as possible. Thanks for your assistance. KDBlackmore (talk) 17:22, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
