Need help merging Colonial Americans?

Private User - isolated in 2 pieces, Prince & Moseley. The geni profile for Ann Prince has been wrongly attached to her husband’s parents, so it was a good catch.

I did this merge https://www.geni.com/merge/view?revision_id=87141240640

Then this one https://www.geni.com/merge/view?revision_id=87141241860

John Middleton, of Westmoreland County now has conflicting parents.

Private User

It's OK. The parents were dups with a name mismatch. Merging solved it

Could someone please be so kind as to assist in completing the following stuck merges/data conflicts:

Almon P Owens
Mollie Meeks
Maria *Settima Metelli
Maria Agnese Modena
Cornelius Poland Tower
Mira "Mary" Sparkman
Susanne Jewett Pratt

TIA,
Debbi

Debbie -

Done.

Two MP "sisters". They're not the same.

I found a home for some cutoff profiles from my last post.

Could someone assist in resolving a stuck tree conflict for the following profiles:

https://www.geni.com/family-tree/index/6000000147270126845?resolve=6000000147270126845
Benjamin Terry, Jr.
Nathanial Terry
Sarah Terry

Also could someone help resolving stuck merge/data conflicts on following profiles:

Joseph Tower
Thomas Jefferson Coffee
John Grissom Wellborn
William Reynolds Parish

TIA,
Deb

Deborah Ann Tower - https://www.geni.com/family-tree/index/6000000147270126845?resolve=6000000147270126845 cannot be done. The manager of Private (a likely duplicate of William "Bill" Garfield Coffey, Sr) is inactive since August 2020.
Please verify the correct family for Benjamin Terry, Jr. and Nathanial Terry The maiden names of the mother are different. The birth dates of the father are different by 19 years. The siblings look very duplicated.

Guidance for John Grissom Wellborn would be appreciated.

Deborah Ann Tower I worked the Dr. Benjamin Terry, Sr. line a bit. But, there are multiple of duplicates of his children. Over 30 of them, in fact. It’s going to take quite a bit of time to straighten those out.

I came across this stalled Merge today & cannot go any further.

The problem appears to be a lack of proof to identify this Man's correct parents. Could someone please see if you can resolve this? Thanks!

Gideon D. Via, Sr.

Private User - there were 3 different Y DNA lines attached so this whole area needs Re doing. I will undo merges.

Erica Howton

Thanks ever so much for untangling the Gideon D Via, Sr, snarl. What a mess that was!

Matthew Lee Richey

As long as it all gets sorted by someone knowledgeable about the family I'm good.

It must be my day for spotting Y DNA mixups.

Dr. Benjamin Terry, Sr.

Shows both DNA Markers: R1b1a2a1a1a4 & I2a, which is impossible and suggests a bad merge or mistaken pedigree some where in the lines.

Matthew Lee Richey - did you want me to take a crack at separating based on uploads? And show you what I’m doing? If I undo merges, merges may have to be re-done.

The basis for this project is the living DNA testers. They can be seen at the bottom of the “view details” link in the DNA tab (the DNA tree).

Private Is R1b1a2a1a1a4

Private Is I2a from Family Tree DNA

Those names tell me the linking was done in 2016 from Family Tree DNA’s defunct tree view. So the chances are good that trying to fit them in with existing or later geni profiles is what caused the error.

The view is at “view detail” (Y DNA Relatives) - tree tab, profiles tab

https://www.geni.com/list/dna_to?focus_id=6000000003645985491&dna_test_type=y

The R line ancestor is James Terry l (son of William Terry ll)

The I line ancestor is Thimas Terry (son of William Terry ll)

So, one on them is not William Terry’s son.

Any clues? It would a simple detaching after all.

James Terry, I (1672-1744) - Y DNA Haplogroup R1b1a2a1a1a4

Cannot have been the brother of Thomas Terry (1667-1736) - Y DNA Haplogroup I-2A

Advice sought.

Erica Howton Yes, please.

Sounds like a huge mess to me!

Deborah Ann Tower - which person, grandchild of Dr. Benjamin Terry, Sr. is your ancestor or of your interest? Post the profile link and work on sourcing that particular profile. It makes a difference. Thanks!

Requested merge on Thomas Moorman, MP

Thanks!

Thomas Moorman, I

Carolyn: That small branch of Thomas Moorman duplicates has no 'additional' info ... isolated for deletion (vs. merging).

I'm looking at a possible merge for Col. George Beall (an MP with locked relationships). See https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000006900909280?cmp=featured_button&return=match&src=email_tm_digest&to=6000000210682207209.

The other side is an import where the importer promptly removed themselves as manager. I would love to isolate and the delete everything attached to Col George Beall But he has a "sister," Sarah Magruder that has a husband and children and further descendants. She corresponds to https://johnsonancestors.com/ps28/ps28_360.html.

Is there a definitive list of children for George's parents - Col. Ninian Beall and Ruth Beall ? (For those who do not know, the Bealls are part of the wider Washington tree.)

Emily Kent Marget

No daughter Sarah as a proven child of Col. Ninian Beall (see “family” section)

And Sarah Magruder is specifically referenced in Ninian’s profile:

Sarah married Samuel Magruder. The best evidence now is that she was born Mills. Thorough discussion at The Mystery of Sarah Magruder and Mary Pottenger.

Matthew Lee Richey - you fixed the Terry family? !

Thomas Terry Now shows with DNA Markers: R1b1a2a1a1a4.

So we’re all good now, Deborah Ann Tower

Thanks ever so much, Dan Cornett for your assist on that potential merge.

Erica Howton - Thanks. I have detached the fictitious Sarah from the extra Ninian & Ruth. (The extra Ninian and Ruth will be sent for deletion.)

Erica Howton I did! Or, I did my best trying to. It took me all day. Luckily, I had the day off work. :)

Erica Howton - I was hung on something else. But I was going to send for deletion the rest of the Bealls that came in the import.

Now to connect Sarah with the existing Sarah.

Two sets of siblings with the same name, and would have been alive at the same time.

I actually think there might be two southern families mixed together (VA and SC), based on his paternal grandmother's timeline/locations of births. Martha Rebecca Childers
