Just a heads-up that a spouse and parent hve recently been added which come with a FamilySearch tree as a source. You may want to consider disconnecting, or finding a better source for the relationships.

I see nothing wrong with the FamilySearch citation to primary documents from the state of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, available on microfilm.

Not a problem on post-1700 profiles, but pre-1700 the original sources should be cited, not the "family tree" that was used. This was just an advisory as the member is new to pre-1700 work. Help: Pre-1700 Profiles - Cite reliable sources was presented to member.
