Talk:Inconsistencies in Turtledove's Work

There is a problem with number 9 in this article. While it is true that George Patton was born in California, it neglects to mention that Patton's family had deep ties to Virginia and his grandfather was a Confederate war hero in the OTL. It is likely that if the south would have won the Civil War, the family would have remained in Virginia.

George Herbert Walker was not born in Connecticut and I will correct this. He was born in St. Louis, MO and his family was from nearby southern Illinois. This still makes him a yankee, though it is possible that the family might have sought its fortunes in the CSA had they won the Civil War as that some from Missouri and southern Illinois sympathized with the Southern cause. It is possible that the writer of this article was thinking of his grandson, George Herbert Walker Bush, who would become 41st President of the US in the OTL who was born in Mass, though the family lived during his boyhood in Connecticut.
