[edit] State vs. Colony

The article is inconsistent about the name Old Colony House versus Old State House. Could someone familiar with the matter please clarify? MaxVeers (talk) 22:37, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I agree, you're right. I just changed the lead sentence to read "The Old Colony House, also known as Old State House or Newport Colony House, is located....". It had not previously mentioned Old State House name, which appears in the NHL/NRHP infobox (and is the correct name to show there as it is the NHL program name for the site).
