[edit] Burial

Where did he die, where is he buried? --evrik 18:33, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm working on getting his auto-biography. --Gadget850 ( Ed) 19:17, 12 July 2006 (UTC) Ummmm... obviously that isn't going to cover his death. --Gadget850 ( Ed)

Here are three more works that may reference him:

Dictionary of American Biography; National Cyclopedia of America Biography; Kentucky Post, June 23, 1965; Kentucky Enquirer, August 25, 1934. --evrik 17:31, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Top importance on a global scale?

Clearly this person is Top importance within US Scouting, but Wikipedia is a global project. Should the article perhaps be High importance? --kingboyk 10:55, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, DCB's work was one of the several works that B-P took a look at in developing Boy Scouting. So his is one of the influences on scouting. B-P himself said that Beard & Seton were 'fathers of scouting' and he was just an 'uncle' --Emb021 14 Nov 2006.
