[edit] infancy

Question: Did John Mawe's son die in infancy or live to be 23? The following is ambiguous: "John and Sarah Mawe had two children, a son and a daughter. Their son, John Saint Mawe (1797–1820), died in infancy." --Rhalden (talk) 05:20, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Sorted; thanks. ONDB specifies 22. Not sure where the infancy line came from. --Tagishsimon (talk) 06:41, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
