Doug I believe I'm learning a little bit about adding these records,  I hope I'm doing it correctly,  If someone doesn't approve of the information I add will they just take it off or does WikiTree regulate information being added by youngsters like me. I'm going to use this as a file to I get to go up to Virgina and hopefully get some pictures of some original documents. THANKS for your help.

This marriage looks a bit "synthetic"  - ie he's known to have had a wife called Elizabeth, but the date and place are only guesses because there's no actual record of the wedding.  Of course "Virginia" is almost certainly a correct guess.

I think we can take it Robert Armstrong was probably born in England, not Virginia as on the profile.
It has him on the profile as born in Virginia, I didn't add that information it was already on their I'm not the manager over the profile but DNA 23andme Paternal R1b1b2a1a Maternal J1c2 Gedmatch kit # M416339 information has connected me one generation at a time along with all yall's help, is this place that it says he is born most likely a place he may have been recorded living at and probably should just be left to, I get the opportunity in October to get a record  (for the keep sake of this place he may have lived). Thank y'all for all this help.
He's also supposed to have been transported.  But then, it says he made a will 20+ years after he was dead.

Looks like there were two Robert Armstrongs.  Maybe there were two Dorothys.

I doubt if there are going to be many records that haven't already been published.
