He or his father?

[As Adolphe Miliband, he was born in Brussels of Polish-Jewish émigré parents. Both his parents lived in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw, before his father, Samuel Miliband, joined the Red Army in the Polish–Soviet War.[1][2] He is buried in Highgate Cemetery close to Karl Marx and many celebrated left-leaning minds of the 20th Century.]

Who is buried in Highgate Cemetery, Ralph or Samuel? Intelligent Mr Toad (talk) 05:17, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If it is Samuel it is hardly necessary to mention it; if Ralph the statement would preferably follow his own death.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 16:16, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]


I am quite sure it is ralph but I didn't find a cite with a quick look - this article http://www.camdennewjournal.com/reviews/books/2010/sep/books-review-ralph-miliband-and-politics-new-left-michael-newman has a pic of him as a young man. Off2riorob (talk) 17:51, 29 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quote about his sons

Where does the quote - "The sadness of some of Ralph's circle at Ed and David's divergence from their father is considerable." come from?

I saw no reference to it in the article it was linking to. Athosfolk (talk) 12:08, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's in the second part of the article. That could be made clearer, or the quote, which is given without any context whatsoever, could be removed completely. – Hysteria18 (Talk • Contributions) 14:50, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Royal Navy

Hello, it says in the abstract he served in the British Army. He of course served in the Royal Navy, could someone please change this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.86.243.150 (talk) 10:57, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
