Wow I can't believe that he was Christopher Columbus was his brother! Bbeaucaire (talk) 01:33, 7 November 2014 (UTC)BB

Chronological problem
"in the 1460s Bartholomew was a mapmaker in Lisbon", but you give around 1460 for his birth of date.

Il must be the 1470s, rather at the end.

Christophe came to Lisbon around 1475-1476 (his son Diego was born around 1480), so that if Bartolomew came after him, it's all right.

Anyway, in a Spanish book (Fernandez, La gran aventura de CC, it seems that B came to Lisbon before C (who was victim of a wreck, indeed).

The chronology should be fixed precisely, with sources, if there are differences. Jcqrcd44 (talk) 19:04, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Hispaniola
There should be a section regarding his role as governor of Hispaniola..as far as I know he was responsible as much as anyone if not more so for the genocide there Anonymous8206 (talk) 00:05, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
