- 12:1612:16, 4 February 2023 diff hist −113 Ezra Stiles Removed passage saying Newport, RI was "three or four times larger than New Haven" in 1752. Cited work did not claim that, and for good reason. The population of Newport in 1755 was 6,753, while New Haven in 1756 had 5,085. Newport was larger than New Haven at that time, but by 33 percent, not 330 percent. I'm citing the Wikipedia pages for Newport and New Haven under the Demographics sections, as well as https://portal.ct.gov/SOTS/Register-Manual/Section-VII/Population-1756-1820

Only one source was cited, and the term is at odds with all other scholarship. (The conflict took place over the course of two years and involved pitched battles and sieges, plus native vs. native fighting). The place to introduce a discussion about an alternate name for the Pequot War would be the Pequot War Wikipedia page.
