Talk:John Esslemont

message: While I'm at it there are some other additions to consider - one is Esslemont's interest in Esperanto (see for example Dr. Esslemont is also noted as being interested and teaching Esperanto - see Making World Peace Real by Paul Dessaily and search for Esslemont.--Smkolins (talk) 14:44, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This seems to require further review - there was a previous edit adding Esslemont as an Esprantist - I don't know if that's a valid label but it's not out of hand wrong given one or two refs as above (another one mentioned he spoke 6 languages adding Persian and Arabian after becoming a Baha'i.) On the other hand that edit was removed with a flat statement that Esslemont was not an Esperantist. So I wonder what to do.--Smkolins (talk) 03:31, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Early British Bahá'í History (1898-1930) notes - "in Bournemouth where Dr. John E. Esslemont (d. 1925) became a Bahá'í in early 1915. A small Bahá'í group was formed from among his friends, colleagues, and former patients. Among these was Sister Grace Challis who was later a member of the British National Spiritual Assembly."--Smkolins (talk) 16:07, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: One step forward and two steps back - I now see "J.E., M.B., Ch.B., F.B.E.A." which I've partly figured out....--Smkolins (talk) 00:34, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: OK - I figured out in context the "J.E." is really his initials. Most the refs to FBEA I see seem related to Esperanto - if you google for FBEA and Esperato you get a lot of hits.--Smkolins (talk) 01:25, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
