Talk:Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures

Title
Far as I can see, nobody but Wikipedia calls it "Society for the Establishment of...". Everyone calls it "Society for Establishing...". I figure we're wrong and the others are right. Jim.henderson (talk) 23:38, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes according to and others.  I intend to move it in the next few days if nobody else does.  Jim.henderson (talk) 01:14, 18 September 2011 (UTC)


 * I've no issues with the move as it seems the more current name, but the name "Society for the Establishment of Useful Manufactures" was not an invention of Wikipedia.    and many more older ≠ wiser 19:34, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah. I trusted my 1943 Britannica's Paterson article, apparently written in the 1920s, giving "for establishing".  Had I looked further, I would have called it an open question, mentioned both in the first sentence, and otherwise let a sleeping dog lie.  Too bad we have no copy of the original legislation.

S.U.M or S.E.U.M ?
Ron Chernow's biography of Hamilto n only mentions and uses the "S.E.U.M" accronym, and never "S.U.M". I'd suppose it's a trustable source and that this page should at least mention both acronyms ? Farialima (talk) 10:03, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
