Some errors to avoid
edit- Harvard lists Treloar's actual name as "Alfred Toof Jennings." (Not "Albert" or "Jenkins.")
- The Physical Culture Exhibition was a 6-day affair, running from December 28, 1903 to January 2, 1904.
- Treloar was judged "Most Perfectly Developed Man" on January 2, 1904. (Not January 16, 1904.) The Edison Studios film of him was made on January 16, 1904.
- He married Georgia Edna Knowlton on October 5, 1895. She later used the pseudonym "Edna Tempest" as a fitness model, his vaudeville assistant, and his co-author.

- Correction: Edna Tempest was NOT the winner of the "Most Perfectly Developed Woman" title in 1904. The winner was "Miss Emma Newkirk of California." Source: "PHYSICAL CULTURE PRIZES. Miss Emma Newkirk of California and Hugh [sic, Al] Jennings of This City Win Awards for Best Physical Development," The New York Times, January 3, 1904, p. 21.[1]
