Numbers do not add up
From the Early Life section:
 * "...the son of German immigrants John Henry Heinz (1811–1891), of Kallstadt, Palatinate, Kingdom of Bavaria, and Anna Margaretha Schmidt (1822–1899), of Kruspis, Haunetal, Hesse-Kassel.[1] His father immigrated to the United States at age 19 in 1840, his mother at age 21 in 1843."

The statement above needs to be fixed, as it clearly fails basic math. 1811 + 19 = 1830. Not 1840. Whoever has the info on which side of this equation is messed up, this is in need of a correction. I've noted this in the article in a Citation needed tag.--Cy Maddox (talk) 04:49, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
 * I've removed these calculations in the hopes that people who need this information can do these simple calculations in their heads. -- Kendrick7talk 06:44, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

Trump trivia
For the record, I've removed various unsourced bits spread throughout the article that went on and on about how Heinz's second cousin from back in the old country is somehow related to Donald Trump, per WP:V and WP:TRIVIA. Even if this could be sourced (I didn't bother to try), and as fun as it might be to play some genealogical version of the six degrees of Kevin Bacon involving famous American businesspeople of German extraction instead of Hollywood actors, it would still be trivia in my humble opinion. -- Kendrick7talk 06:38, 26 September 2020 (UTC)


 * I don't think it belongs in the article at all. And who's to say the Heinz family wants to be associated with the Trumps? Jonathan f1 (talk) 02:27, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
