G2G: Advice before editing this pre-1700 Partridge profile?

0 votes

I have information to contribute to the profile of Rachel (Partridge) Clarke. This is what I can add:  Her parents names are not "...John and Magdalen Bullard Partridge, but John Partridge (of John Green Partridge/Jane Hogg) and Magdalene Bullard (of John Hall Bullard/Magdalene Martyn).

These are the sources I am using: 

memorial id 136970780

Should I contact one of the pre-1700 projects or know about any style guidelines before proceeding? Thank you!

Hello,

I am awful with sources, sorry!  Here is another one:

Magdalene Bullard in theAmerican Genealogical-Biographical Index (AGBI) [

Godfrey Memorial Library, comp.. American Genealogical-Biographical Index (AGBI) [database on-line]. Provo, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 1999.]

Although the sources in Rachel's profile are not adequately cited, they are noted as supporting her currently attached parents, as well as her husband.  Although the page you linked names different parents and spouse, Find a Grave is not considered a valid source of anything, other than a gravestone if a photo is included.  

Please do not make these proposed changes unless you have legitimate sources to support them.
