Hi, I recommend to actualize this article with this biography on his death: http://books.google.com/books?id=PENAAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PA318&ots=euXmHkJh5P&dq=COLONEL%20SIR%20MILES%20NIGHTINGALE&hl=pt-PT&pg=PA318#v=onepage&q=COLONEL%20SIR%20MILES%20NIGHTINGALE&f=false (pardon my english). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.15.72.127 (talk) 16:26, 8 October 2011 (UTC)Reply


I think you will find that Nightingall was never in NSW. He was in India, and was offered the post of NSW Governor, but turned it down, possibly because of illness, or reputedly because he did not want to go, and the post of NSW Governor was filled by his subordinate, Lachlan MacQuarie. The UK dictionary of biography and other sources have this information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Plerdsus (talkcontribs) 05:27, 26 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
