Larry, you posted 03 Dec 2016 by LARRY HERBSTRITT about George Penn that "George's daughter, Christiana left home, to become an early settler in Plymouth, New England. Her uncle, Giles, was a sea captain so he may have been involved in arranging her voyage."
You also posted that "Later in his life he went to visit his daughter, Christiana (an early settler there) where he subsequently died. His remains were brought back to England where they are buried in the family church at Minety, near Malmesbury."
References to this data would definitely clear up Christiana's parentage. She is my 10th great grandmother.
Thank you for attaching photos to my entries about your family to whom I'm not related (was doing the project for a friend). Too bad there are so many gaps in documentation.
Larry did you ever find Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry associated with the Baumann ancestors? I'm still trying to connect to the larger tree but I think our ancestors might be related. My mothers DNA test confirmed Ashkenazi Jewish and we are looking for where it came from.
Also I might need help finding the GEDmatch ID on 23 and Me.
Wow, much time has gone by since you posted your inquiry. Sorry about that. I don't navigate Wikitree all that much but I do like it, in some ways, better than the pay site, Ancestry.com, because its more restricted in what ancestors can be added.
Since your question, I have eliminated the Baumann name from my family tree. I believe I once thought it was on my Snyder side but the combination of a cousin's research and DNA matching has revealed, more accurately, that branch of my tree.
I have found the source of my Ashkenazi DNA. A 2nd cousin of mine on my father's side has the Ashkenazi Levite haplogroup, R-CTS6, information that 23andMe provides. This means his paternal great grandfather, whom we both share, would have been of this same haplogroup. My cousins last name is Lavey but our great grandfather's name was changed in a Catholic orphanage in Kentucky, of all places, to Lavey from Levy. His parents both came from France, I suspect the Alsace area near Germany, and died during the cholera epidemic in the 1800s.
Hopefully, you're still visiting WikiTree and find this reply.
Happy 2020 New Year,
Larry
Wish you a Happy New Year. May 2018 bring you all you need to be happy.

You are so right. It is probably one of the most confusing family tree sites I have come across although they do have some good ideas but hard to work out at times! Yes it was about not being able to get into another profile when they don't reply to a request. Thanks for your reply
Hi Larry, I had same problem so I hunted and found another profile manager who was more responsive. Have you checked out other profiles with the names same as yours?
How are things going? A couple of tips for you as you add to your tree. If you find a duplicate profile, and complete a merge, all the information from one merge is copied into the new combined profile. Please go in and edit the Biography section remove "duplicate" information.
If you don't have a last or first name, note the related information in the related profile's biography section until additional information is found rather than creating an unknown profile.
If you don't have a date or place of birth, at least try and estimate that information and note that it is an estimate in the Bio section.
And lastly, source as you go, because if you're like me, you won't remember where you found the info.
I am a mentor and here to help so let me know!
