more work needed[edit]
I cleaned this up today further today, since I had local history library access, despite a couple of web-based robocalls, presumably from the real estate scammers who have gotten more active in the last few days. Here, I note the difficulty citing the main source, the article in the newest Dictionary of Virginia Biography, which seems more than just annoyance at the cyberbullies. This library is now closing, and I would rather focus my next effort into creating an article about his father, rather than spend more time attempting to jigger the reference form. For what it's worth, I took out the references to the disfavored findagravve as well as the political graveyard, and expect either to revise this article tomorrow at a different library (since this one is closed Thursdays), with easier access to a more reputable genealogical source such as the William and Mary Quarterly. Alternately, I may add the genealogy in my planned article about his father, who also has an article in the current Dictionary of Virginia Biography. I am curious if the skeletal entry in Lyon Gardiner Tyler's volume is because he may have emancipated some of his slaves, or defeated a Tyler family member years earlier.Jweaver28 (talk) 23:48, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
