Comments
 * "1764 he took up residence" he had taken up, and probably a comma after 1764.


 * "printer Joseph Royle" no need to pipe Royle.


 * "It had similar articles as the other two " -> It ran articles similar to the other...


 * "Public Printer" is there any information on this? I've never heard of such a post.
 * ✅ = linked


 * "six hundred pounds per year" £600 and link/inflate.


 * Could link postmaster.


 * "a half-acre" convert.


 * "Dr. " no full stop.


 * "Likely Purdie's printing shop business was.. "-> "Purdie's printing shop business was likely..."


 * "lot #20" don't use hash for "number". And be consistent with lot or Lot.


 * "It appears that her husband" not encyclopedic really, perhaps you should say which source is making this claim.


 * " her death - at " en-dash.


 * "Purdie next married" then.


 * "the moto "Don’t" motto.


 * "Purdie's Virginia Gazette was the" link this first time.


 * "particular Virginia Gazette is" italics.


 * "colonial United States to publish the full wording of the Declaration of Independence which it printed on July 26, 1776" didn't you literally just say that?


 * "There has been a film made titled "The Colonial Printer"" The film "The Colonial Printer" shows...


 * I'm not sure all that film plot is relevant here.


 * Are all those "See also" really necessary, just a list of other publishers, surely the category serves that purpose?


 * Format ISBNs consistently.


 * That's it for now. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 10:08, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
