Some sources refer to the New Model Army during the Protectorate as the "Army of the Republic" - see for example Martyn Bennett, "The English Civil War" (Ditchfield, 1992). Should this alternative name be addded to the article under the Interregnum section?

[edit] New Market ?

The article refers to "a rendezvous (meeting) near New Market on Friday 4 June 1647". New Market points to a disambiguation page. There is no "New Market" in England, but three "Newmarket":

Newmarket, Derbyshire
Newmarket, Gloucestershire
Newmarket, Suffolk

Which of these is meant here? TiffaF 08:13, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rank Hierarchy

Could somebody add information about the rank hierarchy of the New Model Army, such as the names of the various service grades, and their duties?--Tabun1015 13:57, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Can anyone tell me whether Colonel Nathaniel Rich who was in the Civil War, was a relation of Robert Rich, the merchant adventurer during James I's reign, please? Also, where can I find a picture of Nathaniel Rich?82.45.83.192 19:20, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Execution of the Levellers

A minor change - the Levellers executed in Burford were shot, not hanged. There's source material for this in various newsbooks of the day, with secondary descriptions in books like Antonia Fraser's "Cromwell". Bedesboy (talk) 00:16, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
