Talk:Maryland's 7th congressional district

Party membership of Hayward and Kerr

William Hayward, Jr. was listed as having no party here, but on his bio page it says that he was elected as a "Crawford Republican." Not entirely sure what this means, but based on the dates I'm assuming he was a Democratic-Republican of the faction that would go on to support William H. Crawford in the 1824 election? More info would be useful. I added the "Crawford Republican" label to the table.

John Leeds Kerr is listed as having taken office in 1823 as a Whig -- a neat trick considering the Whig party didn't exist until more than a decade later. Presumably he was of the Anti-Jackson faction in the fluid situation of the 1820s. The Whig party affiliation listed on his bio page relates to his service in the senate in the 1840s. Not sure what exactly should be listed as his party affiliation (a perennial problem for politicians in the 1820s and 30s I admit) but calling him a Whig at this time is misleading. --Jfruh (talk) 15:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Maryland's 7th congressional district

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Maryland's 7th congressional district's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 08:34, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
