Need help with clearing up a couple of profiles

Hey Roger -

Not sure how I can help. Would be happy to, though I am not a curator. Are you sure you have the right person?
Private User said that he referred you to me? (I'm honored, of course, but these profiles are outside of my family group).

If you specifically state exactly what needs to be done, I have a Pro membership and would be happy to oblige.

Hi Joe

I am as confused as you are here.

I am not sure how you got involved.

Roger referred to me what he thought was an issue that I didn't think was an issue - and I explained why.

Then I noted that there were some duplicates that could be merged in the area and that we could get a PRO to help by listing them at http://www.geni.com/discussions/99133

Instead this thread emerged ...

But since you are offering PRO services Joe, if you look at http://www.geni.com/family-tree/index/6000000003949675675 you will see that Robert Chaney has two sons Humphrey who are the same and two daughters-in-law Alice who are the same.

[I think there were three Humphreys earlier - one has already merged]

There are some parent conflicts in the area as well.

I think Roger would appreciate a bit of a tidy-up if a PRO would oblige.

Thanks!

Please hold off any action here. Curator Angus is investigating further.

Sorry, my mistake, I didn't address it to anyone one person in particular and didn't make myself clear.

Roger do you mind waiting until I get back some answers from the people who created these profiles.

Joyce can you add anything to help us fix the mixup between the Cheneys and Ellinors.

Angus there's no hurry and thank you for your help, it was just something I happened to see. Is there a Dick Cheney hunting joke to cover this?

Hi Enrique, how are you, yes I see what I am discussing..

But I certainly don't understand what you are trying to tell me..

Try Spanish I will get someone to translate for me.

Private User

Enrique I beg you please do not post in this discussion..I do not want to remove your posts..PLEASE DELETE THEM YOURSELF.

What you are posting has nothing to do with this discussion..

http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/CHENEY.htm You might look at this website..

Private User

David would you post the links to the Ellinor ancestry pages that you shared with me.

The first website I found a few days ago that matched the Cheneys as currently on Geni that I sent to Angus was as follows:

This SUPPORTS the Cheneys as currently on Geni.

http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/CHENEY.htm

7. John CHENEY

---------------------

Humphrey CHENEY

Born: ABT 1457, Higham, Milstead, Kent, England

Died: 3 Jan 1526

Father: Robert CHENEY

Mother: Anne LOVELACE

Married: Alice WOOTTON ABT 1489, Boughton, Malherbe, Kent, England

Children:

1. John CHENEY

---------------------

John CHENEY

Born: ABT 1490, Higham, Milstead, Kent, England

Father: Humphrey CHENEY

Mother: Alice WOOTTON

Married 1: Elizabeth GYLES ABT 1519, Higham, Milstead, Kent, England

Second there is http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/w/e/s/William-West-Georg...

This shows John Ellinor married Angel Tripp. John is not shown on that website with any parents, unlike on Geni at the moment where he has Cheney parents.

Third there are records on Ancestry as follows. These show Ellinors that "match" the first website I found in regard to names, dates, relationships, wives - they just have Ellinor surnames rather than Cheney surnames.

The relevant generations are:

1. http://records.ancestry.com/Simon_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=137004348

2. http://records.ancestry.com/Robert_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=117095075

3. http://records.ancestry.com/Humphrey_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=11709...

4. http://records.ancestry.com/John_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=117085589

5. http://records.ancestry.com/John_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=45188599

etc.

Geni has the top generations as Cheney - then they suddenly become Ellinors.

Of course these are all just websites, not primary sources.

Looking at the similarity of the two websites - we can illustrate with Robert Cheney / Ellinor:

--------------------------------

A. CHENEY

http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/CHENEY.htm

Robert CHENEY

Born: ABT 1421, Cralle Manor, Warbleton, Sussex, England

Died: 22 Jan 1488

Father: Simon CHENEY

Mother: Eleanor NOTTINGHAM

Married: Anne LOVELACE ABT 1449, Queenshithe, London, Middlesex, England

-----------------------------------

B. ELLINOR

http://records.ancestry.com/Robert_Ellinor_records.ashx?pid=117095075

Born 1421

Father: Simon Ellinor

Mother: Eleanor Nottingham

Married Ann Lovelace born 1426

------------------------------------------

So it goes through a few generations and you come to realise you are looking at different names for what otherwise essentially must be the same people, but with conflict on surname of Cheney vs. Ellinor.
