Disproven Existence notice: Patty Sue Milk [closed]

Question

Patty Sue Milk, born 1346. I hardly think I need say more; no one was named Patty Sue at the time.

I'm proposing this profile for adoption by the Disproven Existence Management project. Its immediate connections look equally suspicious, they will be disconnected from "her" and need to be handled. I'm prioritizing Patty Sue because her name apparently attracts a lot of attention, making identifying her as a fraud more urgent.

See also this previous thread about her "husband": https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/370855/does-a-sir-john-welere-exist-any-reliable-sources

If anyone has sources or evidence that this person existed, or more info on the connected profiles (Wheelers under different spellings), please come forward!

Thank you!

Answer 1

I would be so glad to see the end of Patty Sue Milk!  I have read through a heated discussion on an old forum where the creator of Patty defends her creation.  Enough said.

Well, in the discussion on Geni linked by RJ, she seems to have withdrawn after being asked to provide sources...

Answer 2

Sounds reasonable to me!

Patty Sue might just fit in in 1953, but not in 1346.

Thank you for doing this, Isabelle!

Seems to think the known genealogy only goes back to Henry d 1557

Beyond that, there are probably some names of people who existed, but not much info on how they connect.

Thanks. This helps a lot.

I hadn't properly looked at the husband's ancestry, but it's pretty creative. Goes back to the 10th century with lots of ladies named Terri Lynn, Cara Terry, Ruth Ann, Jane Ellen,... I think only Billie Jean is missing.

Well, I was wrong, the thing goes up to someone born 819. With a "Family Brick Wall" category.
