I belong to ancestry .com for about 15 years . They told me that Mary Bolyne was my 12th grandmother.. This comes from Rachel Bowen Barney. Her Husband my 4th grandfather Daniel W, Barney. I am related to Elizabeth Pelham, Anne Humphrey. I will have to check with them again to get the exact line. Ancestry.com also told me That Cecily Neville was also a grandmother. Do you think Ancestry is right ?

The only was to verify is to have sources for each person in the tree between you and Mary.

Your tree appears to have a potential merge between these two fathers of Rachel Barney:
Unknown Profile
Nathan Bowen

The dates don't match so finding source to support one set of dates or the other would be a good start.

Unfortunately Vital Records of Swansea are not easy to find. This is the best study I've seen so far

The death dates in the profiles were impossible as the youngest child was born after 1746, so I edited them out.

It would help a great deal if the siblings and their spouses were filled in. Apparently the Bowen family is not well studied, so completely filled out Geni profiles make a deal of difference.
