Talk:Anne Makemie Holden

Nationality
Some mention of her nationality is needed in the lead. 109.152.244.77 (talk) 09:40, 9 November 2021 (UTC)


 * That's my concern as well. Where is she from, and why is she notable?  That should be immediately apparent in the lead.  Being a clergyman's daughter doesn't make her notable.  Maybe move up the very last paragraph about being recognised by the state of Virgineia?  but why was she so recognised?  There were lots of contemporary supporters of the American Revolution;  what makes her particuarly notable?  I didn't get that from the article. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 21:10, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Just one more note: when I started reading the article, I thought it was about an Englishwoman;  it was only as I kept reading that I realised she was an American, and a supporter of the Revolution.  More clarity is needed in the lead. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 21:33, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
