When I saved after changing to British Colonies these errors came up:

Warning: Check the data. A mother's birth date (Martin-63272 born 1 Feb 1644) should not be more than 67 years before the birth date of one of her children (Worthen-497 born 28 Aug 1728) . A marriage date (4 Dec 1661) should not be before a spouse's birth date (Worthen-498 born 18 May 1672) .
