I will be changing her Last name at birth back to Unknown unless a good source or evidence can be found for the surname Goodwith and added to the profile. Objections?

I believe that this profile is confused. I have written a proper sourced bio, for the wife of John Nichols.

First there is no indication that she married William Nichols, only John. William should be removed. Second there is no valid source for the surname Goowith and her Last name at birth should be changed to Unknown. The Old bio referring to her migration to virginia should be removed. Objections?

Data indicates that Joan (Goodwith) Nichols ded in November of 1627 in Worcestershire , England while biography indicates she arrived in Virginia in 1657, approximately 30 years after her death. Ancestry.com Title: U.S. and Canada, Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, is given as the source for her immigration date.
