Middle initial C

I'm trying to understand why Jane Loudon is given the middle initial C in her name in the title of this article. Is it because it was her husband's middle initial? Mafrado (talk) 08:18, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

August 2020 cleanup

I have just removed some material that was added in March. It was duplicative, poorly worded and disrupted the structure and flow of the article. What new material it did add was uncited.

The new factoids were:

she followed in [her father's] footsteps as a businessperson
Her first job [sic] was for Prose and Verse
she would write Conversations on Chronology
Jane often traveled with her husband acting as hccis secretary
Later in the 1830s Jane wrote Young Lady’s Book of Botany and Agnes or the Little Girl who Kept a Promise
Jane continued to write her gardening books with the help of Agnes
In ... late 1844 Jane received an award from the Royal Literary Fund.
died ... in her bed at home on the fifteenth of July in 1858. [NB article currently says 13 July]
buried [in] Kensal Green Cemetery

If any of these can be cited, then of course they should be re-added. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:14, 3 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Date of birth/age

The article is inconsistent on Loudon's age/date of birth. It states in the intro that she was born in 1800 yet the "Personal Life" section says she died in 1858 aged 50. 2A00:23C8:9897:8501:8D82:6999:7DB1:D011 (talk) 22:45, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
