Re dob. Premerge profiles had before 1710 on one and about 1691 on another. However, the est. dob for the parents of 1680 presented a conflict with the 1691 date, so it was adjusted to 1700. However, it may be that it is the parents' ages that need adjusted.
Due to the wording in the 1709 will of Christian Harmanson, there is confusion regarding Robert's relationships.
From this, it is believed that this Robert was a stepson, adopted by Christian Harmonson, his mother being the Unknown Dreadin (Dryden) and sister of John Dreadin (Dryden).
Another possibility is that son-in-law is used as it is today and that Robert was married to a daughter of Christian:
One problem with this is that the Mary that Christian mentions in his will appears to be unmarried.
