[edit] Information on this page, counters information on the Charles Upfold page

I'm not sure how to go about this, but the two statements below counter each other. Can I get some help in how to highlight that these two statements need to be resolved for accuracy? Charles Upfold page states that he built a large mansion on a piece of land in Crebert Street, North Waratah (now Mayfield), given to him by his friend John Scholey. It was later sold to the famous biscuit manufacturer William Arnott who sold it in 1898 to Isaac Winn, owner of the big Newcastle department store.

The Mayfield page states: Mayfield was originally a pleasant garden suburb on the outskirts of Newcastle, and by 1901 contained a Roman Catholic monastery, and several fine Victorian mansions belonging to prominent businessmen and lawyers, N.B.Creer (also three times Mayor of Waratah), Robert W. Upfold (Soap Manufacturers), Isaac Winn (Department store), William Arnott, J.P., (Biscuit manufacturers) and John Scholey's "Mayfield House", for which the sandstone was brought from England.

I have now fixed the problem. The Mayfield page was inaccurate. Macr237 09:25, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
