Talk:Dick Merrill

Dick Merrill
Thanks to Maury M.'s research and Mark L.'s notice that no article existed on Dick Merrill, there is now a start to an article on a fascinating personage of aviation's "Golden Age." FWIW Bzuk 17:29, 28 August 2007 (UTC).

After studying the history of Iuka and understanding fully the Merrill family roots in Iuka, I am convinced that he and his sister, Lyla Merrill McDonald, were members of the Iuka Episcopal Church. Unknowing farmers of Tishomingo County, Mississippi, would have considered the family to be "Catholic". They were not.

What source did you use to prove that Merrill did not carry newsfilms of Hindenburg crash? Avon Edward Foote, Ph.D., The Ohio State University, 1970. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:7C0:8103:5CBF:CD8B:CB42:10DD:A4B5 (talk) 22:17, 28 January 2019 (UTC)
