[http://www.plimoth.org/media/pdf/collier_william.pdf A Genealogical Profile of William Collier] www.PlymouthAncestors.org retrieved May 2014 has Ruth, the wife of Daniel Cole of Eastham, as the youngest daughter of William Collier by his wife Jane Clark.

Other sources have suggested she was the daughter of William Chester and died in Swansea (not very close to Eastham).

Yet others apparently have her a Chandler daughter.

What is most likely to be closest to correct, and how should this be represented on Geni? It does appear that another Collier daughter married another Cole son.

I noted this last fall when I was doing research on Google and have a note after her name saying Chester?? I can't find my notes, so not much help on this at the moment but will keep it in mind. I'm just starting back over my tree to see where there are conflicts to see if I can shed any light on them. She isn't first on my list, but as I say, I'll let you know if I find anything.

That would be great. The Swansea death location on the same date particularly bothers me as a "mixup alert."
