Parents of Josiah King Howell Josiah King Howell

If I may add, Josiah King Howell is the father of Congressman Thomas Jefferson Howell and Howell County, Missouri was named after Josiah so it feels important to get the merges correct.
Thank you again.

Emily Kent Marget I know https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000043693776908?return=dupli... doesn't match, but they have the same name and share a wife. I have no idea if the one on the left with two wives is in error, and I don't generally work on southern trees.

Dan Cornett is a manager of one of them, so maybe he'll see this and can help.

Also, should we go ahead and merge these and then just correct the data conflicts?

Elizabeth Scudder
Elizabeth Scudder

Private User - I did the merge involving Philemon Hawkins, I However, there are still lots of data conflicts from the various merges that have occurred over the years.
Since that is not an area that I know much about, I am leaving the data conflicts for someone more knowledgeable in the area.

I'm working through the stack of Hawkins merges. Please look at John Davis Hawkins I rejected the proposed merge because the wives were different.

Please check the rest of the Hawkins family for errors.

Now to tackle Elizabeth Scudder vs Elizabeth Scudder

Private User - Read the "about" on Elizabeth Scudder I've done more locking of the data for Elizabeth Scudder

I don't see any more problems with the Hawkins at this point, everything is looking much improved, many thanks to Emily and Erica.

This is a duplicate tree, the manager on the right is already a manager on the left. Can it be deleted?

JC: there seemed to be additional info for a number of the smaller branch; I merged ... but did not look at resulting data conflicts.

Lucy Potter she is a mess now

SmartCopyConsistency Check:Hannah Lanphear (Potter) is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Susannah Langworthy (Potter) is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Amelia Fenner (Potter) is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Nathan Potter, Jr. is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.David Rogers Potter is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Elisha Potter is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Lucy Ann Potter is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Albert Potter is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Ezra Potter is in a relationship cycle within the immediate family.Hannah Lanphear (Potter) born after the death of her father Ezekiel Rogers.Susannah Langworthy (Potter) born after the death of her father Ezekiel Rogers.Amelia Fenner (Potter) born after the death of her father Ezekiel Rogers.Nathan Potter, Jr. born after the death of his father Ezekiel Rogers.David Rogers Potter born after the death of his father Ezekiel Rogers.Elisha Potter born after the death of his father Ezekiel Rogers.Lucy Ann Potter born after the death of her father Ezekiel Rogers.Albert Potter born after the death of his father Ezekiel Rogers.Ezra Potter born after the death of his father Ezekiel Rogers.Hannah Rogers (Greene) is over 55 years old for the birth of her child Lucy Ann Potter.Hannah Rogers (Greene) is over 55 years old for the birth of her child Albert Potter.Hannah Rogers (Greene) is over 55 years old for the birth of her child Ezra Potter.

Bill: Looked like a cross-generational merge of "Nathan" happen; I think it's cleaned up now ... but could use some checking of details (and data conflicts).

Thanks Dan - Working on the bottom now , it was scary

I went through every duplicate that showed up in my merge file. I spent an entire day either comparing and merging or comparing and rejecting. Now I need to fix some discrepancies and dates on those profiles that had been neglected and more current accurate information has been found.

What I am finding in many of them are abandoned private trees that are listed as private going back to colonial America or current people who keep their branches on private well over the 150 years. Once merged, I no longer can see them and if private, I can't get a link to share. Emailing the individual doesn't work always.... But still merging what I can.

Curators can flip the zombies to public, request that before merging.

This Merge has a problem

I was going to complete it, but not sure about the children it's bringing over

One was called Master Robert Richard b 1728 - never heard of him??? who was he, didn't know he was part of the Moseley family?

https://www.geni.com/family-tree/index/6000000000085718145?resolve=...

I suggest to undo this merge ---- I think the tree may have several mistakes along the way, we may not want added.

I did a search and couldn't find him ---

Suzan Martin - I have reversed the merge.

I am beginning to not trust what the user has done.

https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000207668636042?return=match...

There's a GEDCOM in process on the parents, if that would happen to be a good cut point.

Private User - evidence needed for parents of Thomas Easterling

For some reason the lock did not hold for "no parents." Fixed that, and merged the new dup.

Erica Howton

How can we resolve the conflict triangle on John E. Easterling

Also, I think my post from 7/30 was missed.

And I have an issue in the Crockett line. https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000020560265016?return=dupli...

Private User & Erica Howton - I was looking into https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000207668636042?return=match%3B&to=6000000020944799954.
It's worse than just the GEDCOM. There is another match as well - https://www.geni.com/search/matches?id=6000000020944799954&src=profile&cmp=btn.

Joseph Chilson had a first wife. I have found her and attached her. But her likely father is a mess - Rev. Gershom Hobart I started a discussion from him, but no response to date.

Everything is cleaned up now around John E. Easterling

Emily Kent Marget & Private User

Cleaned up around Joseph Chilson and the GEDCOM seems resolved.

Outstanding issues, which are genealogical:

Erica Howton - I believe the parents of Hephsibah Chilson are Rev. Gershom Hobart and Sarah Hobart But the children are a mess.
