[edit]Southborough is a suburb now, and not just of Boston but of other municipalities as well. When Warner Oland lived there is was largely a farming community. It didn't begin to develop into a suburb till after 1950. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Telegonus (talk • contribs) 05:27, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Warner Oland was joking when he said 'Mongolian' and that is a common joke made at the time. The joke had a dark undertone as he avoided the racism for having native ancestry. The truth is that he was not entirely Swedish but ixed Scandinavian & Lappish = Sami. What I know I am not a relative of Oland myself, but I am a good friend of several relative/descendants of Warner Oland. So nearly make a correction but decided to leave this fact on the talk page for reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.255.131.166 (talk) 15:44, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
