Hi Bill,

Thanks for your interest in Elizabeth, wife of Samuel Burgess. The Findagrave Memorial is not a good source for a pre-1700 profile, especially when there is no gravestone. Please see: Help: Pre-1700 Profiles - Cite reliable sources] and the Mayflower Project's Reliable sources list.

Please also note that we don't usually make changes to pre-1700 profiles without collaboration with the profile manager.

I agree Bill, Dederick 22 and 11 are the same. If you look closely at the headstone, there is no "k". My relative said it was added later.

Have you asked Sue from Dederick 11 to merge? I tried to merge but I am not on her Trusted List.

Just checking in with a few quick tips:

Free Space pages are wiki pages for supplementing your family history. They can be used to profile anything of significance such as a special pet, a meaningful event, a school you attended, a family heirloom .... They're "anything pages".

Not sure what to include in a profile? Check out our Biography Ideas and Styles and Standards help pages.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, please ask!

I started working on my family tree about 2010. I try to ensure that my information is correct, and I try to provide references for my entries.

I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to great information about GEDCompare, the process of adding a GEDCOM to WikiTree, that you might find helpful.

If you have any brick walls, collaboration might help bust through. Because WikiTree has only one profile for each person, the further back you go in your ancestry, the more likely cousins will find you and help out. ANY Wiki Genealogist can edit "Open" profiles (over 200 years old = open). There's also a brickwall tag in the G2G forum: brickwall

The help pages give lots of information about the process, best to start with 'Before you import a GEDCOM'.
