I changed the first name of Jane Alllen, who was connected to William Allen as a daughter to Sarah. I did this so I did not have to create a new profile for Sarah and eliminate the duplicate for Jane. The I realised that [[Allen-23428|Jane Allen, daughter of William Allen, never married this Daniel. So, if this Daniel did marry Jane Allen, a new profile needs to be created with the correct parentage. I am sorry for the confustion.
