The dates for this Sir Thomas Morgan, 1st Baronet of Llangattock are currently inconsistent with his currently connected father Robert Morgan, Sr. ... his is claimed to be grandfather Sir Thomas Morgan of Llanryhmny.

The various "About" info sort-of seems consistent, but then the dates end up being impossible (with this Thomas being born when his father was 3!).

Help with sources would be appreciated. I suspect that there were two Robert Morgans that got attributed as sons to the same Sir Thomas Morgan of Llanryhmny -- but should not have been.

I get most of my info by Google, or some is found through sites like ancestry.com and of course, this one! I've found the same situation with a Great Great Grandfather Johnny Morgan. There are two profiles set up with two different pictures, and of course I have a family photo showing both men in the same picture because they are brothers! Some people enter bad info because they find a picture with no names, so they guess, mine have names. I have found info on this site, that was later removed, and then some that were completely changed.

==========================

That still leaves open the questions, though about at least:
Sir Thomas Morgan, 1st Baronet of Llangattock
Admiral Sir Henry Morgan, Privateer
Catherine Morgan (currently without any dates)
who don't fit with the 8 children noted above, yet all have attributions in their About that they are children of a Robert, (3rd) son of Sir Thomas Morgan of Llanryhmny
