A genealogist recommended a merge of Peyton-861 and Peyton-849, but I think 849 is the uncle of 861. However both indicate a wife named, "Sarah West Patterson" and the siblings are very similar.
A second genealogist removed the father from 849 (Peyton-434..Maj Robert Peyton) but I don't understand why.
Peytons of VA II; pg 2 (2013) lists wife of Maj Robert Peyton as Mrs. Mary Keeble (assume widow) and children, including Robert, William (Peyton-861, I think) and 5 others. But Wikitree's listing for Robert (Peyton-848) lists only two siblings (Elizabeth and Thomas).
So the questions: Should Peyton-434 be restored as the father of Peyton-849? Should the sibling list in "Peytons of VA II" for Peyton-848 be added (including Peyton-849)? Which Peyton did Sarah West Patterson marry? 3 of the siblings listed for 849 are also names of siblings for 861 (which led to the merge request that I received). The sibling set in Wikitree for 861 almost matches the set in Peytons of VA II (children of Robert Peyton-848). What is the source of info for 849? (Peytons of VA lists no descendants for him).
