Talk:Libe Washburn

Lynn, NH does not seem to be a real place (there's a Lynn Hill in rural New Hampshire, near Actworth, NH, but there's not sign of a place actually named Lynn). Whereas Lyme exists and is near Dartmouth College. Most likely that B-Ref has a typo. Philippe (talk) 14:21, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
I mentioned this to Bill Carle and he agreed that Lynn is almost certainly a typo. There may be a correction in the next edition of the SABR Biographical Research Committee report, which would in turn lead to B-Ref correcting its page. Philippe (talk) 13:51, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
