The below was left on my talk page... if someone can do the needful, I would appreciate it. – xeno cidic  ( talk ) 12:33, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Nancy Licini (nee Shelton) and this serves as notification that the WikiPedia South Bend Watch Company History and the reference page under Heartland is in accurate. I am not an editor and really do not have the time to figure out how to undo the deletions of my contributed revisions, or should I say corrections. Additionally, I do not understand the format for documenting your articles and the signing of my posts by typing four (4) tildes.

So, I am asking you to undo this and make the changes for me. Here are the facts:

Walter Cross Shelton, Sr. 08/12/1881-08/15/1975 (W.C. Shelton, Sr.) was my paternal grandfather and the man associated with the South Bend Watch Company. Mercel Joseph Shelton (M.J. Shelton) was his son (my uncle) and graduated from Purdue University. He became a Civil Engineer. My father, Walter Cordier Shelton, Jr. 11/22/1914-04/01/1998 (W.C. Shelton, Jr.) became an Aeronautical Engineer. Neither of Walter C. Shelton, Sr. sons were associated with the South Bend Watch Company. Again, it was W.C. Shelton, Sr. who was the jeweler and watchmaker in our family.

This is my family genealogy and I am asking you to kindly make the appropriate aforementioned corrections. As a reference regarding validity I am refering you to the South Bend Tribune (Obituary Section) of my father Walter C. Shelton, Jr. dated 04/04/1998. It does state "His father, Walter, Sr. was the manager of the South Bend Watch."

If you should have further questions, please feel free to contact me at the following. Thank you kindly for your prompt and courteous attention.

 * According to the above comment is correct in the inaccuracy regarding the Shelton. I have corrected the name in the article.  Charles Edward 13:11, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
