Talk:Francis Noel Clarke Mundy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] His native Derbyshire
If he was born in Leics, how can Derbys be his native county? DuncanHill (talk) 10:01, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi Duncan .... I have tried to clear this up by amending the article. The Mundys are a strong Derby family ... this particular one was born in Leicestershire. I think you get "nationality" from parentage, birthplace and by living there .... he gets it from parentage and ancestral home. OK? Victuallers (talk) 12:13, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Nativity is to do with birth - Derbyshire would be his ancestral county, Leicestershire his native county. DuncanHill (talk) 12:26, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
I agree, if the category was called "Natives of Derbyshire" then it would be clear. However I'm not really sure that my working defintion is correct for "from Derbyshire". Do change it if you want. Cheers Victuallers (talk) 12:59, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, I didn't express myself clearly - I wasn't querying the cat, rather the sentence "Mundy died in 1815 and the magistrates of his native Derbyshire caused his bust by Francis Chantrey to be placed in the county hall in memory of his long and eminent services in the situations of justice of the peace and chairman of quarter sessions."
