Talk:Robert Cummings

message: I replaced the photo from Dial M For Murder with a close-up of Bob from The Barefoot Mailman.  I think this photo better represents Bob's image.  I would have left both photos, but Wikipedia guidelines state that only one screenshot should be used per article.  I find that the Dial M For Murder photo is more appropriate for the article on that film. SteveHopson 03:46, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

message: The correct birthdate should be: 09 June 1910.
There are two ways that I arrived at this date:
1) using the Social Security Death Index (SSDI): which lists 09 June 1910 and Sherman Oaks, CA as the last residence (which agrees with a NYT obituary).
2) The US Census of 1910 for Joplin, Jasper County, MO. Cummings parents can be found in Galena Township of Jasper County, in enumeration district 14, (sheet number is illegible on Heritage Quest images). Robert O. CUMMINGS (name given in the SSDI) does not appear. The enumeration was taken in April, 1910. His mother would have been pregnant, but that does not "count". Had Robert been born in 1908, he should have appeared with the age of "1". Another entry shows the mother "Ruth K." had not given birth to any children at this point in her life. The CUMMINGS are listed on lines 12/13; were noted as being married for 10 years; and were 44 and 34 years of age, respectively. The father was listed as aa "allopathic" (sp?) physician. [I suspect he was not a graduate MD.]  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.243.207.8 (talk) 23:34, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I have seen conflicting information about his fourth wife, whom you have listed as Wong but other sources list as Young. The first names are not similar either. Thought you would like to know.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:301:7743:E050:E575:8D17:D335:7CCC (talk) 01:09, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

message: This 1938 article by Cummings in Flying states that he and Janis were married in 1935 in Akron.  Don't have access to the source that gives 1933, so I can't say if this is a reference conflict, typo, or edit snafu.  Cummings didn't seem to have a problem inventing identities, so maybe he made it up... Richigi (talk) 18:50, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
