[edit] Cause of Death

Please don't edit the cause of death. Albert P. Morehouse is my great-uncle. I have a book on our family history that goes back several centuries. His cause of death is in our family history book as are the causes of everyone that could be found. Several members of my family have committed suicide by cutting their own throat. Even as recent as 1996. It actually goes back farther than just Albert Morehouse. Apparently this is the way to kill yourself in my family.Rmm813 17:37, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

One of the cornerstones of Wikipedia is that the information has to be verifiable. I have a reference to sunstroke from the Nodaway County Historical Society (which you deleted). If you're going to post something like that you're also going to have to provide a method for somebody to verify your claim. Since according to the user contributions list this is the only article you've edited, taking your word on the events is suspect. Americasroof 17:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Well I suppose that I could scan and upload the pages from my family history book. His suicide was not brought on by sunstroke. There is actually a long recorded history of mental disease in my family I could provide medical records to if you like. And what difference does it make that this is the only article I contributed to. The only reason I did is because he is a relative and I wanted the article to be accurate.Rmm813 22:35, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
