Whoever added the succession boxes says his first service in Congress began in 1829. Reagan was eleven that year. PedanticallySpeaking 16:33, August 16, 2005 (UTC)
Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

It's been a few years, but as I remember Gatlinburg is at the SW end of Wear's Valley. Sevierville is at the NE end. They are not the same town, or even adjacent. The list of communities includes Reagantown, which was quite possibly named after John Henninger Reagan, since he is our only listed "notable person." I won't assume he was born there, but I DO intend to change his place of birth to Sevier County until someone cites evidence for one town or the other.

Gatlinburg and Sevierville are not in Wears Valley, but they're certainly not the same town or even adjacent, so "Sevier County" is probably best. Iirc, Reagan was born in Gatlinburg, though it was called White Oak Flats at the time. I'll check sources when I get home. "Reagan" is like "Jones" in Sevier County, so Reagantown isn't necessarily named for John H. Bms4880 (talk) 15:27, 14 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the move of this page, John H. Reagan (60%) and John Reagan (32%) are the only iterations of Reagan's name that constitute over 5% of references to him on newspapers.com in Texas from 1850 to 1910. Star Garnet (talk) 17:29, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
