Talk:Vanderbilt family

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think the Vanderbilt page should be directed to Vanderbilt University.

[edit] Adding more to the Fam tree

A lot more fam members can be added to the fam list. Here is a good start: Use google search string "VANDERBILT site:wikipedia.org" (With out the " ")

Josiah Hornblower is a very distant relative of the Vanderbilt family. And as there is no "Vanderbilt empire", I deleted the entire sentence about this individual.

[edit] what?

this sentence is incomprehensible: Of the 120 descendants gathered there, not a single one of those in attendance was a millionaire, though many other members of the family are from their family inheritance.

many other members of the family are what, exactly? If they are millionaires, what the hell is the point of saying that the family didn't keep its money????

Yes, I also agree with that. I found this page because I was researching family history. My maiden name is Vanderbilt and I know names of several generations but wanted to know more. My family never had much money so I'm trying to figure out what happened. ??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.93.234.26 (talk) 04:30, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vanderbilt should direct to university not here

Does anyone else think that typing in "Vanderbilt" should direct to Vanderbilt University, not to this page? At a very minimum I think "Vanderbilt" should point to the disambiguation page before leading here. Cazort 17:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
