Several Wikitree contributors agree Jarvis Gilbert born 1708 is not the son of Garvis Gilbert nor of Thomas Gilbert.

The old data, was no data. No sources, no data. It proposed a 1709 birth date and had no death date or place. I changed the birth date and added the death date and place based on solid sources which I listed and may be reviewed. You'd added no data after you adopted the profile which was started by another party with a gedcom. All the data in the profile come from the five sources I added as does the Bio which I wrote in it's entirety. Before I did that, it just contained an inaccurate birth date based on a guess.

Agreed about custom. If an earlier child by the same name is found in any sources then they can be added again with the proof but in the absence of sources and anything to go on for dates etc then I suspect this is a duplicate. It was an old gedcom import with vague dates that caused a conflict with known siblings. I see both profiles now have the same dates so merge makes sense.

I'd argue it was customary. I have multiple instances of that happening among my 16th and 17th Bristol England ancestors. I had an ancestor, Walter Pike, who was mayor of Bristol during Elizabeth I's reign. He had two older brothers named John. My guess is the eldest was sickly and the father thought he'd die later. However, I've never come across the practice in the American Colonies in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Without facts, you are speculating that an unlikely event actually occurred. If you had a 1709 birth record, then you'd have grounds for speculation. I've given you the source that you may review on line. Just go back and review the birth announcement in said record (Parish birth records) and see if you find a birth for an earlier Jarvis Gilbert. If you do, then he is either a nephew of Garvis (Jarvis) I or a son. You then need to prove which, but either way you have grounds for a separate profile. If you find said record, you prove there were two Jarvis Gilberts born about the same time in the same county.
