Sources on Elizabeth Jennings' profile also say that Robert moved back to England in 1720, so if Elizabeth Porteus-7 is indeed the daughter of Robert, and her 1728 birth year is correct, then she was the daughter of Elizabeth Jennings, not Margaret Smith.
(The 1693/4 will of Edward Porteus discussed in the Jennings-1605 profile was witnessed by John Smith.)
A mother's death date (Smith-6522 died 1725) should not be before one of her children's birth dates (Porteus-7 born 1728) . SAVE ANYWAY [more info]
