=Altered spelling?==
The article says:
::''His father was a farmer, Obedience Alcott (1776–1847); in the 1820s, like many members of the family, he altered the spelling of his last name, which on his tombstone appears as "Obid. Alcott".''
So how was the last name, Alcott, written before he/they altered the spelling? [[User:Mendelo|Mendelo]] ([[User talk:Mendelo|talk]]) 07:04, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Altered spelling?=

The article says:

His father was a farmer, Obedience Alcott (1776–1847); in the 1820s, like many members of the family, he altered the spelling of his last name, which on his tombstone appears as "Obid. Alcott".

So how was the last name, Alcott, written before he/they altered the spelling? Mendelo (talk) 07:04, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
