[edit] Alphabetic bias?

Unless almost all people from the Boston area have names beginning with A, this list seems to show a rather odd alphabetic bias. -- Chris j wood 10:28, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually, no. It is still a list in progress, and, of course, the first letter listed is "A". The others are being added as I go through them, alphabetically. You, and everyone else, are free to add names yourself. However, I would request that they all be individually referenced as per wikipedia guidelines. Remember, from the period the book covers, a lot of people from Boston are likely to have been important figures in what would be American history. Badbilltucker 14:04, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
