I am planning to begin updating this profile on behalf of the Ireland Project. If anyone knows of additional reliable sources which should be included, please message me or post here. Thanks,

This profile https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Hamilton-2306 has same name for parents with different vitals and locations. It does seem possible it is a sibling to Judith, although siblings for each respective profile don't match. Comment on https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Hamilton-6000 also wondering same thing.

Thanks for the heads up, Jared. This can be researched when Judith's profile is updated, it currently only has 3 sources; one is a family genealogy and another (Burke's) is considered unreliable so a good deal of work needs to be put in on this profile. The project will get to it eventually but has a pretty long to-do list, if you would like to start on this now that would be great.

I did find a version on Ancestry that supports the theory that Judith and Audley are siblings. It has different ancestry though than both Wikitree profiles for Judith and Audley on the Hamilton side. Might be a good starting point. I will look into what I can find sources for

Here's a link to the Ancestry tree for future reference https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/52936908/person/26907908438/facts

The Ireland Project has been added as a co-manager of this profile, which needs updating with additional sources and the bio edited to focus on Judith rather than on her brother. If any of the PMs or TL want to begin an update before the project can get to it, please do feel free to go ahead. Thanks!

Hamilton-10427 and Hamilton-632 appear to represent the same person because: same/similar dates, same family branch
posted by Robin Lee
The tree that this generates shows Judith is married to both Audley Calhoun and to his father, Alexander Calhoun. This would probably look even worse if all the dates showed.

Hamilton-975 and Hamilton-2301 appear to represent the same person because: Same child (Margaret), husband (mispelled) and birth date range and location.
posted by Wendy Hamilton
Hamilton-975 and Hamilton-632 appear to represent the same person because: Same spouse, child, birthdate range and location. The Hamilton-632 profile does not have much info and no profile manager.
posted by Wendy Hamilton
Was she married twice - both with last name Calhoun? Children need to be reconciled within bio
Hamilton-2303 and Hamilton-975 appear to represent the same person because: They are a match.

There appears to be a problem here the age difference between the first and last child is 200 years.
