Place of birth[edit]

@Artfullearner: Would you happen to know which specific Thornbury it is that Benson was born in? I haven't been able to narrow it down further than England (which is not very impressive, as there are no Thornburys in the other parts of the UK). Lennart97 (talk) 11:47, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lennart97: Yes, that is correct. It is the town(?) in England. Looks like it's in the South of Gloucestershire.

That would be Thornbury, Gloucestershire. But do you have a source that says so? Lennart97 (talk) 15:28, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lennart97: The sources that list Jane Benson's birthplace as 'Thornbury, England' include the Cologne based art gallery, Priska Pasquer, https://priskapasquer.art/portfolio-item/jane-benson/ and the Wall Street International magazine https://wsimag.com/art/53531-jane-benson

I noticed, but the problem is that Thornbury, England isn't specific enough. Thornbury#England lists four different places called Thornbury in England, hency my initial question which one it is. If there is no source that specifies it to be the one in Gloucestershire, it's best to keep Thornberry unlinked in the article, as it is now. Lennart97 (talk) 16:33, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
