Talk:Early life of Elvis Presley

German ancestor[edit]

In an effort to be more properly encyclopedic, shouldn't we mention Elvis Presley's paternal ancestor, Johannes Valentin Bressler, who came from Germany to New York in the early 1700s? 76.190.213.189 (talk) 03:49, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Possible Jewish heritage[edit]

Should we mention Elvis Presley's possible Jewish heritage, from his maternal great-great grandmother Nancy Burdine? 76.190.213.189 (talk) 04:04, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. It is backed by even his biographer Elaine Dundy.Speakfor23 (talk) 16:47, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

POV vandalism of this page needs to end[edit]

The Times of Israel and the Jewish Chronicle are most certainly not unreliable sources. The grave which was placed in Graceland in 1977 is also not the same the headstone which was placed in Memphis' Forrest Hill Cematery in 1964. Riley not mentioning reports about Elvis' Jewish ancestor is also an unreliable claim. She most certainly did not deny it either.Speakfor23 (talk) 16:59, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Making POV claims like "all the citations of this text are not strictly reliable, with no verified authors whatsoever" are not helpful. The Commercial Appeal, Times of Israel and Jewish Chronicle are indeed reliable source with verified authors.2601:447:4100:C30:30A4:B153:B38:299D (talk) 23:28, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
