Research Notes
There is uncertain and conflicting documentation to link the names Reuben Brock with Great Eagle. See the following links ...
- https://www.genealogieonline.nl/en/my-giant-family-tree/P2582.php Unsourced
- https://www.genealogy.com/forum/general/topics/ai/27844/ Unsourced
- http://ourtexasfamilycom.ipage.com/BrockWebSite/Earliest_Brocks_inVA.html Unsourced
There also are other problematic data in this profile: See WikiTree error Warning: Check the data.
A father's death date (Brock-282 died 1721) should not be more than nine months before one of his children's birth dates (Brock-648 born 1725) .
-- the death date has been removed pending further evaulation and corrections.
