This page appears to be a hoax. The creator of the page has no WP edit history. After initially creating the article, he later added two "facts", both of which are ''prima facie'' false, apparently as a claim to notability:

*That L.L. was a Welsh prince. The last claimant to being a Welsh prince was in 1409 -- see [[Prince of Wales]].
*That his daughter was the first woman MP from Wales. But the first woman MP from anywhere was in 1918 -- see [[Countess de Markievicz]].
There is also no trace of Lloyd Leggett in Google, Google Books, or Google Scholar.

This page appears to be a hoax. The creator of the page has no WP edit history. After initially creating the article, he later added two "facts", both of which are prima facie false, apparently as a claim to notability:

  • That L.L. was a Welsh prince. The last claimant to being a Welsh prince was in 1409 -- see Prince of Wales.
  • That his daughter was the first woman MP from Wales. But the first woman MP from anywhere was in 1918 -- see Countess de Markievicz.

There is also no trace of Lloyd Leggett in Google, Google Books, or Google Scholar. Macrakis 19:57, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
