The Error Report showed that the first three children as listed on 6 May 2016 were born too soon to have been born to this couple. Vital records confirm their birth and marriage dates, so the error is unlikely to be in the parents ages and marriage. These three children, Hannah, Mary, and Benjamin, and perhaps others, were born to other couples. I am working on straightening them all out.
