Aaron Furtado Baldwin, UE9006698 - great work on the Whitneys. I'm embarrassed that as a linguist, I didn't work on them, especially William Dwight Whitney.
If we don't have one, we should have a famous linguists project.
Private User - thank you. I see the project has been there for years and William Dwight was added long ago! Good work everyone.
Hatte Rubenstein Blejer his two daughters followed him into the field of linguistics.

I believe Margaret was the first woman to Chair a Department at Vassar College

Erica Howton would you be interested in my request at the bottom of the previous page that was missed? He's a descendant of the NE/Mass Clough line, the line that had a good discussion that you participated in a few weeks ago, so I thought it might interest you.
And interested because he’s an artist. Started to look at George Lafayette Clough before and got distracted. MP made now.
Could we please MP Gen. Orris S. Ferry, U.S. Senator - U.S. Senator
and his father-in-law Connecticut Governor Clark Bissell
Clark Bissell, 17th Governor of Connecticut
Done, Aaron Furtado Baldwin, UE9006698
Note the changes -- the display names now follow our format for politicians, and the unnecessary "Education 1/2/3" labels are gone from Ferry
We try to limit the free labels to only what's truly necessary, as they can add a lot of visual clutter and also can become a bit "competitive" amongst users, since every user has a different concept of what's important enough to merit inclusion. For education, we already have designated fields built into profiles, plus we have projects, so adding labels as well is overkill.
Could we please MP

and his father-in-law
Former professor of surgery at the New York Medical College, Dr. Abraham Liddon Cox resigned his New York practice at the opening of the American Civil War and became the Surgeon-in-Chief, 1st Division, 20th Corps, of the Army of the Cumberland. “Hastened by the labor and exposure incident to the active campaigns of that army,” Cox died of dysentery at Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, in July, 1864.
Dr. Cox was also a founder of the American Anti-Slavery Society and a member of its executive committee.
Aaron Furtado Baldwin, UE9006698 -- both done, but the logo on Dr. Cox's profile is copyrighted, so let's remove or replace it

Mary Baldwin was a 19th-century American missionary educator to Greece and Joppa (now Tel Aviv, Israel). She was the "first unmarried woman sent out by the Foreign Committee of the Protestant Episcopal Church's Mission Board." During the Crimean War, Baldwin assisted Florence Nightingale in hospitals, and they became life long friends.
