This page referred to Hooker's birthplace, Exeter, as lying in "Alevenshire, now Devonshire". I have removed this because I have never heard of such a former name for Devon, and Google gives no evidence for it other than from a set of genealogical sites which all seem to be linked. I suspect that it is a typo that has been propagated by copying; does anyone have any knowledge or evidence? seglea 00:15, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
