There are at least three persons with the name John Rae:

1. Author:John Rae (1796-1872)

2. John Rae, Scottish explorer (1813-1893)

Rae,_John_(DNB00)
now the only John Rae linked on Rae, does not yet have a page on ws.
He is an author, because he wrote:
1850: Narrative of an Expedition to the Shores of the Arctic Sea in 1846 and 1847
London : T. & W. Boone

3. John Rae, Scottish journalist and biographer (1845-1915)

What would be a good way to have all these John Rae's incorporated? --Dick Bos (talk) 17:47, 28 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
