from the G2G discussion:

"The parish is actually Abbots Ann (fair enough, could by a typo) and the only John Williams baptised in that parish 1600-1620 is a John son of James Williams baptised in 1605 "England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NK6L-S97 : 6 December 2014), John Williams, 23 Feb 1605; citing ABBOTTS ANN,HAMPSHIRE,ENGLAND, reference ; FHL microfilm 1,041,195."

Liz, is there continued need for project protection here?

If there's a project watching over the profile, PPP could be removed, but I don't think it should be left without both project and PPP (even with pre-1700 editing restrictions). Looking at the change history, it was added because of LNAB differences & removed/re-added over a relationship change. I see the US Southern Colonies project box, but not the project account.

Thanks. I've added the project account.

Hello Liz and all. Not even sure how I ended up with him!

I received the following message:
"The children were looping because the wife profile was given as his mother.

So his children were his siblings.

"Fixed the other children - since he's protected I can't "fix" his relationship."

Thanks Michelle! I haven't studied this family & don't quite get what you're saying (and without a bio have nothing to refer to), so I "unprotected" it.

P.S. He's pre-USA. "Category:Virginia Project" is tied to the Virginia Project, which is post-USA.

You can not have a mother born in 1618, and her children born in 1612! This Mother is not the mother of these Children, she is the Spouse of this John, mother of the son John Lewis Williams II

It seems unlikely that his siblings and children are the same people!
