Was doing a light clean up / exploration of my Swearingen line and ran across this. Seems to validate the Geni tree pretty exactly (need to check more & add the document to the relevant profiles)

"Will of I Thomas Cony of Bassingthorpe in the County of Lincoln, Esquier ...". Names his son, Sir Thomas, and granddaughter, Elizabeth.

I'm just trying to be a good contributor. :-)

For my work on the Coney/Cony family, I consulted Stirnet's "Coney1" page (http://www.stirnet.com/genie/data/british/cc4aq/coney1.php), which is based on The Rev. Canon A. R. Maddison's "Lincolnshire Pedigrees". (Various volumes and addenda of "Lincolnshire Pedigrees" are available for free at Google Books.)

Sir Thomas is my 3rd cousin 14 times removed: http://www.geni.com/path/John+Albert+Rigali+is+related+to+Thomas+Co...

I'm wondering if the Lincolnshire pedigree pages are available in MyHeritage records. I'll take a look. It's nice to build out with multiple sources.

Peter Barns-Graham (Stirnet's proprietor) used a volume of "Lincolnshire Pedigrees" from 1909. When I browsed Google Books, it appeared that more than one volume was published in each year of publishing.
