The "K" in MacKenzie ought to be capitalised.

Look at the way it's written on the stone. 145.64.134.241 06:22, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

Well, people during that era were not always consistent about how the name was rendered. The DoCB article prefers the "Mackenzie" spelling, I think we should stick with that. Fawcett5 12:46, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Date of Birth earlier?

I was reading Lewis by Donald Macdonald and it says Alexander Mackenzie crossed in 1774 aged 12 giving a date of birth of 1761/2, googling for Alexander Mackenzie a few pages record his DOB as 1762?

Yeah, i read a book about Alexander Mackenzie and it said he crossed to North America in 1776???

i am trying to find the explorer, NOT the prime minsiter. or are they both?
