I think you intended "Priou," not "Prion."

There has been debate about whether the use of 'Adam' by Bennett as a parent was actually 'President' rather than 'Adam'. He himself says he used both.

From your description page: "Brent Dickerson in his Old Rose Advisor, and in "Master List," lists 'Pink Soupert' and quotes from A California Nursery Catalog of 1897 the information that the plant is a seedling of Clothilde Soupert, while asserting in the listing that the plant is a cross of 'Clothilde Soupert' with 'Lucullus," a China rose."

What a strange comment, seeming to imply that there is some contradiction there. Something which had 'Clotilde Soupert' as a mother is ipso facto a seedling of 'Clotilde Soupert', be it crossed with something else or with nothing at all.

This seems to be a note from the early days of HMF, actually stating info from two different sources, but could be misconstrued. I am sure no criticism was intended. Removing the note to avoid further misunderstanding.

Likely my eye has skipped over something; but I do not see where the imputation that 'Paul Crampel' is a sport of 'Superb' originated. Is the first reference to that parentage indeed from so late as 1996?

Also, you have the Peter Beales catalog in your References as from 1935.
