Parental Note

According to the 1st source listed, the Baptism record, Andrew Innes is the father of Elizabeth. Not Hugh Innes [ https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Innes-414 ] According to the Citation/source of Hugh Innes, he died without issue! Therefore he and Margaret can not be the parents of Bettie.

I found this while trying to dial in on birth records for ElizabethCiting this Record

"Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XBX9-4QF : 2 January 2015), Andrew Innes in entry for Elizabeth Innes, 17 Mar 1673; citing TEALING,ANGUS,SCOTLAND, reference , index based upon data collected by the Genealogical Society of Utah, Salt Lake City; FHL microfilm 993,509.

Yvonne, this was an easy and obvious break of a false Royal line that came up in G2G. Something so obviously incorrect requires very little discussion, especially on an unsourced profile.

I started a separate G2G thread if you would like to discuss it further.
