Hello all, I suggest you contace the Southern Colonies project to see if they wish to co-manage this profile. The project box isn't supposed to be used on profile unless they are Project-Managed.
Cumberland Co., VA, didn't exist in 1665 nor 1733. It was formed in 1749 from Goochland Co., VA. It might be helpful to update the birth/death places for this Thomas Green.
Andrea, Did you check with the project managers when you changed the preferred name of Thomas Abner Green? (from Thomas to Thomas Abner?) what did you base you information on? Thank you
That project name is such a mouthful. I should think "American Southern Colonies" would suffice, and is closest to what those colonies would have been called back in the day.
I edited his birth and death locations and biography but I don't know who added the template for "US Southern Colonies Prior to incorporation into the USA". Like Bob Nichols wrote, back in October, about not knowing what project this profile was being protected, I didn't know either, until yesterday, when I saw the template, for the first time. Glad to know now what project Thomas Green is affiliated with (???)
Whoever completes the merge between Green-7972 and Green-1425, please use birth year 1665, from Green-1425 and please use death location, Southam Parish, Cumberland County, Virginia, also from Green-1425. Thank you.
P.S. to Vincent - if you were remarking on the Project name (US Southern Colonies). US was included even though the project timeframe pre-dates US because WikiTree is global and "Southern Colonies" could apply to other countries also. (Even for the same location as "US Southern Colonies" - e.g., British Southern Colonies, French Southern Colonies, Spanish Southern Colonies). Yes, I asked :D
update - detached

No I meant the place names had USA, I didn't see the Project name, but Nalani Marie Kupau Brigg edited it maybe before you saw it maybe.
