Talk:First Continental Congress

message: I am going to leave the most recent edit by Reese1031 as it is, but I would like to see the article changed to reflect Rhode Island's participation, and a reference provided for same.  If this is not done, I will revert to the previous version which indicates that Rhode Island did not participate in the First Continental Congress. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 17:55, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  How did the First Continental Congress make war with Britain more likely? 

message: Reference to the Journals of The Continental Congress 1774-1789, Vol I, page 30.
As recorded, that on this date, September 14, 1774, the two deputies from North Carolina, William Hooper and Joseph Hewes, Esqrs. attended the Congress and produced their credentials.
The article would lead one to believe that all the delegates were present as of  September 5, 1774.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.49.66.19 (talk) 14:07, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Another major accomplishment seems to be missing, namely the Declaration of Colonial Rights and Grievances. Is there any particular reason why it was not included? Otherwise, it really should be added.

message: No one in 1774 called it that. It wasn’t until the Second one that this one had ”first” anachronically added to it. I’ve tried to fix it, wasted my time (see history), so someone else can deal with it. deisenbe (talk) 17:32, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: No one referred to World War 1 as the "First World War," either, until the second one occurred. Yet these are the common terms which we now use to refer to these events. It's just the simplest way to avoid confusion.  —Dilidor (talk) 12:23, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: That makes sense, but why was my pointing this out in the first sentence removed? deisenbe (talk) 13:00, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

text: It seems self-evident to me. We call it the first one because there was a second one, and the second one is addressed in the intro. Does the article on WW1 specifically state that we call it the "first world war" because there was a "second"? I think we need to assume some level of common sense in the readers.  —Dilidor (talk) 15:06, 31 May 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  It isn’t the First Continental Congress 

message: It seems that the citation #8 under "Notes" has been changed to an incorrect address and should be changed (back) to http://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=lljc&fileName=001/lljc001.db&recNum=109 as it had been on an old version of the page.

message: Was not Charles Thomson a delegate to the 1st Continental Congress?  His name is missing from the list of the Pennsylvania delegates. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HistorianUS18thcentury (talk • contribs) 00:22, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
