Talk:Margaret Brown

message: In the second paragraph of 'Richs and Riches', there seems to be a bit of petty vandalism. Now I don't know what's supposed to be said (though I have an incling), so someone who does should fix that. 
"1909 and 1914 she ran for Congress; she also assisted in poo poo shops Denver's Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception which was completed in 1912. "

message: Wasn't Brown the first woman to run for U.S. Congress. The article on congress doesn't mention her, but I recall reading somewhere that she was the first woman to run for Congress, but didn't make it.--Wikiphilia 04:33, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

message: The article says only that she died in her sleep, yet she's in a category for brain cancer. Did she have brain cancer? Was this the casue of her death? If so, the time that she died (while asleep) is irrelevant, since she died from brain cancer. Stearnsbrian (talk) 19:59, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Catherine Ellen Brown ("Helen"), was born on July 1, 1889 , it states her husband lived from 1877 - 1907. But she was married on April 7, 1913. Something is amiss I believe...167.207.128.101 (talk) 19:01, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Catherine Brown's information 

message: Why is there not much mentioned about her experience on the Titanic? I'm not saying it should be the major part of the bio but I do think it should be mentioned more than it was in this article. Does anyone have anything? If so please add it.
The article claims that "The 1997 movie Titanic...did not depict that Margaret Brown was the impetus for the return."  As far as I can tell, the movie did clearly depict her causing the return.  What's going on here, am I missing something?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.131.73.166 (talk) 08:34, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Titanic 

message: It says she was portrayed by "Morgan Hill" in (1998) (Titanic: Secrets Revealed) (TV documentary), but the link goes to the page for Morgan Hill, CA.  According to IMDB, that is the only thing Morgan Hill (actress) has done, which is likely why she doesn't have a wiki page.  The article should not link to the city.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.61.150.36 (talk) 23:42, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

message: The article claims she ran for Senate in 1909. This is odd, since that wasn't an election year. Does anybody know what's up with that? —MiguelMunoz (talk) 22:03, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

message: The following was removed -- There is no evidence of a  Carnegie Institute in NY (ever), or anywhere else in 1901; earliest (Established 1905): Carnegie Institute of Technology (CIT) at Pittsburgh.  The only 'Carnegie' in NY is 'Carnegie Corporation of New York' (1911) and 'Carnegie Hall' (not a place where a "student enrolls").  
* REMOVED: In 1901, she was one of the first students to enroll at the  in New York.

However -- "[Carnegie] gave $2 million in 1901 to start the Carnegie Institute of Technology (CIT) at Pittsburgh"  -- So, it was started in 1901, but not established until 1905.  Was Ms. Brown in Pittsburgh, 1901?  ~Eric F 184.76.225.106 (talk) 23:08, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

message: The "Early life" section states after her separation with J.J., she received an allowance of $700 per month to continue her activities. The right sidebar (under her picture) states her salary (usually an annual figure) was $700. Which is correct? BJWhyte (talk) 19:22, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Is there really a Church of the Annunciation in Leadville?  The link is to the one in Denver, and I don't think that a brick church building has been relocated that far across the Colorado mountains.  2600:1004:B104:310B:59AE:4694:8B2E:837B (talk) 01:12, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
