Bartlett's test
I don't think that Bartlett's test is due to this Bartlett. Cutler 09:30, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Born in London
There is some confusion about whether Bartlett was born in London or Stoke-on-Trent.

One reference that indicates Stoke-on-Trent is an obituary by Cox (2002, ISI Newsl 26:77).

Several references indicate London, specifically Chiswick, London. Not only an obituary (Statistician 51:399-402), but separate interviews by Gani (1982, The Making of Statisticians, Springer, 41-60) and Olkin (1989, Stat Sci 4:151-163).

Given the amount of biographical detail provided by Bartlett himself during the interviews, London seems much more likely than Stoke-on-Trent, unless further references can be supplied.
