Talk:Lewis C. Bidamon

Where was he born?
The article states: "Bidamon was born in Williamsport, Virginia" but the infobox states: "Born January 16, 1806 / Harmony Township, Pennsylvania." Which is it? TuckerResearch (talk) 18:04, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
 * The journal article that is linked to in the references says that he was born in Smithfield, Virginia: Valeen Tippetts Avery and Linda King Newell, "Lewis C. Bidamon, Stepchild of Mormondom", BYU Studies, vol. 19, no. 3 (1972). I would regard the article as more reliable that this website, where the claim of Williamsport comes from.

Military
I remember reading he was a commanding officer in the Black Hawk War. I'll find and see if that is true. Rjgalindo (talk) 04:55, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
