Per our pre-1700 community standards, all such profiles require at least one reliable source be cited. In the case of Benjamin, you cited "Ancestry.com," which is a repository for sources and not a source in and of itself.
Please go back to Benjamin and Richard and specify exactly which source that is housed on Ancestry.com you are citing. Because Ancestry is a paywalled site, please quote the pertinent details for those without a subscription and include a link to the source for those with a subscription.
Let me know if you have any questions or need assistance.
I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Participation in a project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Be sure to also check out our Volunteer Hub to see our projects that really need new members!
Let me know, and I can help you figure out if there's a project that might interest you. Welcome aboard, we are glad to have you!
