Hi Michael,

I have done a gedcom clean of the imported data on Samuel's Profile and added open sources for the data added. Also added a sticker and category and some research notes. It looks to me like Edward is his father so leave you to add to his profile and link it to Edward and his siblings. Some of whom may also not be on Wikitree.

All the best Janet
