Middle name

[edit]

Encyclopaedia Britannica and others give Samuel David Gross, [1] but a contemporary biographer and renowned surgeon in his own right, J.M. La Costa, gives Samuel Dent Gross as his full name. [2] Jokestress 08:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A curator at Jefferson wrote to say Thomas Dent Mutter was Gross' colleague and coeval, so DaCosta may have gotten confused. Changing for now. Jokestress 21:44, 1 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Many references

[edit]

This article is peculiar in that it has a great many references, but no inline citations and not much information about Gross. Apparently there is a wealth of information available, but not included in this article. --DThomsen8 (talk) 01:43, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lawrenceville School

[edit]

He attended Lawrenceville School not "Lawrenceville High School". There is a world of difference between a local high school and the elite prep school. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 12:22, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
