Name

Apparently some records (created on Family Search) provide a middle name of John -- We believe that is a mistake and confused with another family member. WWS

Research Notes

The source WFT (World Family Tree) was a collection of user submitted trees as Family Tree Maker (FTM) files in the early 1990s when Broderbund owned FTM. Through a series of ownership, FTM eventually became the property of ancestry.com who dropped support of the program in 2016. Those trees may now reside behind the ancestry "pay wall." It is unknown if the tree #4233 cited had any sources. I do have a copy of the CD and will check it at sometime in the future. WWS

Requesting permission to alter the 1776 Sticker so that it falls into a different error list for maintenance. This would be a big help to the volunteers working the maintenance category so we would not handle the profile over and over. If you want to make the change yourself, the format should be:
