Talk:John H. Hobart

Wisconsin
The article is a member of People of Pre-statehood Wisconsin, and Writers from Wisconsin, but did he ever live in what is now Wisconsin? The article doesn't even say he visited it. Mdmcginn (talk) 17:52, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

Saints banner and category
Based on this individual being included in the Calendar of saints (Episcopal Church in the United States of America), I am adding the Category:Anglican saints and the Saints WikiProject banner to this article. I am awaiting reliable sources which can be used to add the content to the article. John Carter 19:46, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Anglo-Catholic movement
I revised this section to eliminate the term "proto-Oxford", which is not supported by the literature and tends to be confusing. The subject is well documented in DeMille's book and (to a lesser extent) in Prichard's History of the Episcopal Church. Describing it as 'an earlier Anglo-Catholic movement' is less confusing and can be supported by published books. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dbrookman (talk • contribs) 03:56, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Commemoration
I changed the term "feast day" to "commemoration" (under the heading "Veneration"), since the only feast days in the Episcopal Church are Holy Days such as Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, etc. and New Testaments saints' days (St. Mark, St. Thomas, etc.). Historical figures such as Hobart instead have commemorations, and their observation is not required in the Episcopal Church. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.3.43.158 (talk) 23:15, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

John Henry Hobart Ward
I just did some cleanup on this article and noticed that it does not mention his family. I don't have time to do the research, but a quick wikipedia search showed a Union Brigadier General from New York State, John Henry Hobart Ward, who was born seven years before the bishop's death. Apparently the father was a James Ward--I wonder if he's the bishop's grandson.Jweaver28 (talk)
