In running the Bio Check tool on profiles connected to me, I've been getting a number that come up with a style error for "Wrong level heading = Find A Grave =" and I see that you've been making those edits.
There are only a few standard first level headings that should be used such as Biography, Sources and Acknowledgements.
A FindAGrave heading is not typical (at any level) since it is not normally acceptable to simply copy over all the user-generated data from another genealogy site and paste it as part of a profile. It's perfectly adequate to simply to put the link to the FindAGrave page in the sources list, or use it as a citation for info in the Bio. Then people can go there and see what it has to say. I personally don't consider FindAGrave an actual source except for the headstone & cemetery info, for the most part.

How Rebecca Lynch Purdy ended up marrying Abraham Gabay Crasto is something of a mystery to me, but I have focused on this marriage and their children. Abraham's adoptive father, David Gabay Crasto, was a Sephardic Jew from South America, arranging for imports from the plantation system in Suriname. With David, there is a rich history available. He first worshipped in the NY Temple for Sephardic Jewry, and after a dispute over the burial of his wife, seemed to lapse away from that faith. He began work in NYC as a grocer and a builder, including some work in Westchester. This must have brought him in touch with Elisha Purdy Jr. HIs son Abraham and Rebecca were married in a Christian ceremony at the age of 17. With the oldest daughter with them, they returned to Surinam where the family was accepted into the Jewish faith. Their business there concluded, they returned to NYC where they resumed life as practicing Christians. It is an odd story, well documented by Jewish Archives in NYC. Abraham at his death was entirely American, having struggled with the Know Nothings during the course of his life as a politician. The Purdy family is an interesting one, too, of course, and perhaps most interesting is the fact that Elisha Purdy Jr's father and uncles were torn apart by being on different sides of the American Revolution, with the Loyalists expelled from the country after the war. My best to you on your genealogy studies. - Tom
Thanks for taking responsibility for Orphaned Profiles. This is a courtesy email to share the After Adopting Orphans FAQ which explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need from their profile managers. One quick way to find the profiles you adopted is by searching your Contributions List for the word "adopted" and "manager." You can find a quick link to your Contributions List in the My WikiTree dropdown menu.
If you will be working with any profiles needing GEDCOM cleanup, the AGC tool can help with formatting so that you can concentrate on the research. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.
