Talk:Dál Fiatach

message: Dál Fiatach surnames should not be included in the infobox as cadet branches. None of them are 'cadet' lines. Further it should not be used to simply list as descendants who are already listed in the text. The infobox is for a dynasty and royal house, effectively defunct since the 13th century... unless later lordships, however small, are discovered. In the case the O'Haughey/Hoeys can be demonstrated to have continued as local lords, which is a possibility (I may once have seen a reference to this), then whatever their titles should be listed in the appropriate main section of the infobox.

Talk:Uí Ceinnselaig

message: The "Uí" in territorial names of this sort is the plural form of "Ua/Ó" and not the genitive so it is incorrect to lenite the following word. It should be "Uí Ceinnselaig" (modern "Uí Ceinnsealaigh").Murchadh (talk) 04:27, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Right or not, Uí Che[i]nnselaig is about twice as common on my bookshelves, perhaps more, than the alternatives. It's found in Charles-Edwards' Early Christian Ireland and The Chronicle of Ireland, Byrne's Irish Kings, Smyth's Seanchas and Bhreathnach's Kingship and Landscape of Tara, among others. The indexes to these strongly suggest that while names following Ua are indeed not lenited, those following Uí are: Ua Conchobair but Uí Chonchobair. Angus McLellan  (Talk) 18:23, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: "Uí" is both the genitive and nom. plural of "Ua/Ó". When genitive it lenites the following word - as in "Uí Chonchobhair" ("Connor's grandson's") above. When plural it does not - "Uí Ceinnselaig" = "descendants/grandsons of Ceinnselach").Murchadh (talk) 22:32, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: These works are referring to a dynasty just as we are here, that is the index entries are for the groups "Uí Chonchobhair" and "Uí Che[i]nnselaig" rather than for one particular person. I'm not an expert so I'm perfectly willing to accept that there's more than one way to skin this cat, but if you try Google books I think you'd see that there's a solid case for preferring "Uí Che[i]nnselaig". Angus McLellan  (Talk) 23:59, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Lenition after plural "Uí" is a common error (understandable as it's an easy one to make) which has been repeated by some prominent authors, but an error it remains.Murchadh (talk) 04:41, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: You could well be right, but so far as Wikipedia is concerned - see here - prominent academics only make mistakes in their field of expertise when other prominent academics are on record in writing as thinking that they did.

Talk:John Smith (professor of languages)

message: Richard Behrens's claim that "John Smith was born December 21, 1752 in Rowley, Massachusetts, to Joseph Smith and Elizabeth Palmer, both cousins of Asael Smith and Mary Duty, the paternal grandparents of the prophet Joseph Smith" is almost certainly incorrect.
Behrens's source for John Smith's birthdate and parents was George T. Chapman's 1867 publication, Sketches of the Alumni of Dartmouth College. However, Chapman's information was inaccurate. Various sources after Smith's death gave his birthdate as December 21, 1752, and his widow gave that date as well in her memoir of his life. However, at the end of the memoir, she says he died on April 30, 1809 "aged 57 years & 6 months," which would would place his birth in 1751, although in a different month (see Box 1, Folder 3, John Smith lectures and grammar books, MS-1266, Rauner Library Archives and Manuscripts).
Fortunately, we have John Smith's own account of his birthdate. In a small booklet passed down to his descendants, Smith gave his birthdate as "Decr 10, O.S. 1751" (see "Records by Rev. John Smith, D.D., of Hanover, N.H.," New England Historical and Genealogical Register 70 [1916]: 150), which is corroborated by parish and town records. Rowley town records list a John Smith being born on December 10, 1751, and Byfield parish records have a John Smith being baptized on December 15, 1751. December 10 in the Julian ("Old Style") calendar corresponds to December 21 in the Gregorian ("New Style"). So, Chapman had the day right but not the year. 
Rowley town records list John's parents as Joseph and Sarah (source), which matches to Joseph Smith and Sarah Sawyer, who were married in Rowley in January 1743. This identification also fits Smith's widow's statement that John's father's name was Joseph and his mother "was a descendant of the Sawyer family." 
Joseph Smith and Elizabeth Palmer were married on September 28, 1752. This Joseph Smith may have been a grandson of Asael Smith's great-grandfather, Robert Smith. Elizabeth Palmer was likely a first cousin of Mary Duty. This couple may have had a son John who was born on February 3, 1753—but this was not the Dartmouth professor. Rowley and Newbury town records do not list any John Smiths born in December 1752 or in any other month of that year.
