Hey! I have read "A History of Mathematics". It's great!
Keep that "He was the grandfather of Daniel C. Boyer" garbage out of there. This guy was basically Non-notable and this article should probably be AfD'd, it's even worse to have this guy's grandson, who is totally non-noteable, insist on putting his own name in the article. Now if you don't mind, I'm off to edit Cyrus McCormick to say "He was the grandfather of the cousin of the uncle of Descendall" --Descendall 05:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
I do not agree that he was non-notable. Columbia University has an award in his name, and he did make contribute to the history of mathematics (A History of Mathematics is a useful source for anyone writing about it here). P.L.A.R. 22:23, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
