Talk:Thomas Playford I

Removal of original research and more needs to be done
A lot of this article looks like original research (WP:OR) (as at Sept 2019) but where individual statements are backed up by newspaper articles of the time, I think it's find to let them stand. A lot of statements backed up by a wordpress article require reliable published secondary or tertiary sources but don't look obviously wrong so I've left them. I have removed a bunch of speculation on the part of the previous authors of the article which I doubt will be backed up, including comments inside citations. Two things I removed which might be carefully reworked to a neutral encyclopaedic tone (WP:NPOV and not WP:OR) after careful checking follow:


 * 1) Her [Hannah's] brother, the Rev. John Playford, was not mentioned in the newspapers after 1848, and may have returned to England. It is possible he died en route, which would make Marion King's (2003) statement at least partly true.
 * 2) Advertisements for Ralph Drummond's church suggest Playford's arrival was around that date (1844).
