Biography

married (int. pub. at Boston June 7, 1756) Mary Jordan, the daughter, born July 29, 1735, Captain Samuel and Olive (Plaisted) Jordan, of Biddeford, Me. She died Sept. 27, 1760, according to her gravestone,* [* In memory of Mary, the loving Consort of Capt. Phillip Goldthwait who died Sept. 27, 1760, ae. 24.] still standing in the ancient burying-ground near the former site of the First Church, Biddeford (now Lower Biddeford). Her youngest child, Mary, baptized about three months after her death, was born, probably, not long before it. [1]

When I changed Death location (USA not formed yet) this came up.

Warning: Check the data. A mother's death date (Jordan-15255 died 27 Dec 1760) should not be before one of her children's birth dates (Goldthwaite-293 born Jan 1761) . (31)

Thank you for your message. The mother died in childbirth or soon after. The date of the child's birth is marked as "before" the date of baptism (after the death of the mother) I have entered. The warning does not take the "before" button into its consideration.

This warning has appeared in other of my profiles where the date of birth has been entered as "before" the date of baptism, and the baptism of the child occurs after the death or burial date of the mother (or father). I believe it is more correct to enter a known date (as of baptism) and mark it "before" (and to "save anyway") than to enter an "about" year for the child in the year of a parent's death. What is Wikitree's policy for this occurrence?

Thank you for correcting the place of birth in line with date.

Warm regards, Josephine
