 * Thanks! I established my WiKipedia username and password back in 2021, but I have not used it enough to know everything about making edits and including my references. I have a lot to learn about this editing process. What I was trying to do today was make some corrections on an entry that I saw on John and Clarence Anglin who escaped from Alcatraz in 1962 along with Frank Morris. I am the historian of the Columbia Historical Society in the tiny town of Columbia, Alabama. The CHS now owns the former Bank of Columbia building where the Anglin brothers pulled off their (only proven) bank heist in 1958. I have seen so much incorrect information on various websites related to that bank robbery (in connection with the 1962 escape from Alcatraz). A lot of sites can't even get the bank name right. Some writers apparently copy incorrect information from other sites, thereby just spreading inaccurate information. I try to have some of this information corrected where I can. I likely have more detailed knowledge of the 1958 Columbia, Alabama, bank robbery by the infamous Anglin brothers than anyone else. You may want to view my recent post on the CLIO website about the old Bank of Columbia building. I also talk about the Columbia bank robbery on a YouTube documentary titled Alcatraz: Escape to the Wiregrass (Part 1). For over a year, I have been working with the Alabama Historical Commission to have the old Bank of Columbia building listed on the National Historic Registry. That is a long and very detailed process.
 * Thank again,
