I see that Jeremy's profile could use some connections like his children or his siblings. Do you want me to send their info to you or is it ok for me to edit his profile? It looks like I can because I have access..genealogist, data doctor or something. But I don't want to do it without your involvement or approval.
Let me know. He's just a favorite of mine.
Thanks Melissa
