Jordan and Reynolds profiles

Your site is excellent, however, the Reynolds and Jordan profiles have not been approved by any lineage society or reputable genealogists. Cecily Jordan Farrar was an Ancient Planter, but her 3rd husband William Farrar was not (he came to VA 1618-too late). Cecily's descendants are eligible for Order of Descendants of Ancient Planters because of her, not her husband. There is no proof that Cecily was a Reynolds - this is just a fantasy created by one Mr. Reynolds who wrote a fictional book and wanted to be descended from her. Many have speculated who her parents were, but nothing has been proved. Descendants of Cecily proved are those through her daughter, Temperance Cocke and her son William Farrar.
There is no proof of issue of Samuel Jordan in England or America, and no one knows what happened to his daughters, Mary and Martha by Cecily. Samuel probably had children, but until proof is furnished, no one can join a lineage society through him.

Thanks Elizabeth - that's my understanding as well. What needs correction?

No one knows who the parents of Cecily Baly Jordan Farrar was is a fact. Any body can print anything, but no proof has ever surfaced concerning Cecily's background. Elizabeth Tissot
