[edit] Place of Birth?

According to:

(1996) in Richard Sherer, ed.: Steuben County, The First 200 Years, A Pictorial History. Virginia Beach, VA: The Donning Company. 

Francis M. McDowell was born in Wayne, New York and he returned there to run a vineyard. That area is well known for its vineyards. I doubt if New York city grows many grapes. Anyway, can someone provide a reference for his birthplace being NYC, or should it be changed in this article? I have entered his birthplace as Wayne, NY in that article.

I have changed his birthplace to Wayne, New York. PAR 21:58, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
