The final paragraph under "Construction" in the "History" section of the article on the "Catskill Mountain House" states:

"In 1839, Charles Beach, whose father ran a stage coach line from the town of Catskill to the Mountain House, leased the hotel from the owners for six years and then bought it outright. Beach rebuilt the Mountain House, changing the original Federal design into a neo-classical structure."

Clicking on "Charles Beach" in the paragraph leads to an article on J. C. Leyendecker, which includes a reference to Charles Alwood Beach, with whom Mr. Leyendecker lived. The Charles Beach who owned the Catskill Mountain House was Charles L. Beach, who lived from 1808 to 1902. (Van Zandt, Roland, "The Catskill Mountain House," pp. 29-30 (1966) Library of Congress Catalogue Card Number 66-18877). He was my great uncle. He was not Charles Alwood Beach, who according to the Leyendecker article died in 1954.

The Catskill Mountain House article should change "Charles Beach" to "Charles L. Beach" and should not link the name to Charles Alwood Beach in the J.C. Leyendecker article.
