The many and myriad Hiltons
Hi,

I've just noticed John Hilton (I) and the old discussion at the talk page of John Hilton (composer). We don't have a very good systematic way of dealing with cases with the same name, same profession, but one solution might be to go for:


 * John Hilton (composer born 1565)
 * John Hilton (composer born 1599) (or "died 1657", as his birthdate may be ambiguous)

Thoughts? If you're happy with this, I'll go ahead and move them around. Andrew Gray (talk) 23:20, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
