[edit] Article name

So where on earth should this article be located? He's normally called Lord George Germain (which doesn't even redirect here as I'm writing this, sigh), and his surname changed like two or three times...Before, it didn't even have the "Germain" anywhere in the article title, which is just really bad. At any rate, I'm open to ideas. john k 17:33, 12 Jul 2004 (UTC)

No clue. On a totally different manner, was he "Secretary of State for the America" (as the article mentions), or "Secretary of State for America", or just Colonial Secretary? ugen64 14:11, Oct 30, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Cashiered?

it says after the Battle of Minden he was "cashiered and sent home." What does cashiered mean? I've never heard that term. Maybe it's British English (I'm American) --Awiseman 15:37, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
