[edit] Name problems

I've corrected a major source of confusion here. This article refers to Dr. James S. Douglas (1837-1918), NOT his son, James Douglas Jr (?-1949), "Rawhide Jimmy" Douglas. Both were major figures in Arizona mining history.

At the moment, "Rawhide Jimmy" Douglas doesn't have a Wikipedia entry. I've put him on my to-do list. Pete Tillman 17:16, 30 November 2006 (UTC) , Consulting Geologist, Arizona and New Mexico (USA)

I've seen James Douglas (businessman)'s name given as
  • James Douglas, Jr
  • James S. Douglas
  • James A. Douglas

Anbody know which is correct?
