Descent

[edit]

Persia is Iran and there are Persian people in Iran how he would be considered Indian? Simsala111 (talk) 02:10, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The word "Parsi" means Persian. The Parsis left Iran centuries before because of religious persecution and immigrated to India. They generally do not marry outside of their religion (they are Zoroastrians) so their gene pool is less diluted. Therefore in terms of heredity, Freddie was mostly Persian. 92.16.169.112 (talk) 19:55, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In the death section, remove the word 'a' before 50%.

"He bequeathed his home, Garden Lodge, and the adjoining Mews, as well as a 50% of all privately owned shares, to Mary Austin." Jonathanator1 (talk) 19:29, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
