DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Frederick by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Frederick:

This profile needs some serious GEDI import cleanup. It was imported twice, by the same person, and I have cleaned up some of that and added a church marriage record with a link.

Carole,

Thanks for your comment on this profile. I agree with you that the Wiki section is in need of cleanup. It's unfortunate that Wikitree doesn't handle GEDICOM imports better but at least WikiAGC helps. However, WikiAGC won't work on this profile because of the errors that were introduced with the first GEDICOM import in 2016.

The available solutions that I know of are: - Manually cleanup the profile. I'm not willing to do this so someone else would have to volunteer to do it. - Erase the profile and re-import it from my GEDICOM and then run WikiAGC. I have done this before but this method removes all of the manual edits that have been done, including yours. - Leave things as they are.

It's important to note that all of the data is in the profile: The vital facts and sources are accessible. It's only the Wiki formatting that is messed up.

If you know of another solutions, I'd like to hear it. Otherwise I won't take action unless you say you are willing to add your edit back in.

Regards, Ed Rowlance
