Need a double check - looks like he’s gone wandering from his parents.
See https://media.geni.com/p13/a0/c4/f2/37/5344483a18fb4a12/the_visitat...
Stanley, of Weber [and Alderly] “son of _ (Damport) & Thomas Stanley of Weever. husband of Ursula sister of Sir Hugh Cholmondley, parents of Tho.; Rafe (m. Margrett Masterson); Elizab. (m. Roger Downes); ffrances (m. Henry Delves); & Doroty Stanley
Can anyone help identify his correct parents in Geni?
According to this Visitation (Cheshire 1580), he should be Thomas, son of Thomas, son of Thomas, son of John, son of Thomas who married Joan Goushill.
Viewing the merge in 2014:
https://www.geni.com/merge/view?revision_id=6736942033
Parents were Thomas Stanley, of Elford (merged into the Stafford fellow) & Matilda Stanley (merged into Matilda)
What is the 1580 for?
Display Name Thomas Stanley of Weever 1580
Birth estimated at Birth Date estimated between 1401 and 1455 I think that is the messup with son of Rafe and Margrett at the bottom of https://media.geni.com/p13/a0/c4/f2/37/5344483a18fb4a12/the_visitat...
Maybe added later?
Thomas Stanley, of Weever & NN Stanley
And they are missing their son Thomas & his wife daughter of Thomas Damport; they are the parents of Thomas who married Ursula.
Never mind - this is easy because we have a dup.
Thomas Stanley, Esq., of Weever
Disconnect and merge.
Would you like to curate and relationship lock Thomas Stanley, of Weever & his wife, just to spread the pain ?
Missing some profiles also if you get inspired.

Steven Mitchell Ferry -- can you take a look at all this? This involves some of the profiles you entered from Wolcott.
Steve’s profiles were perfect, the rest of the tree was added to them (and conformed to his entries).

I’ve now found another issue, the Weever / Alderley lines mixing with the Bickerstaffe family.
I just rescued Sir Edward Stanley, 3rd Baronet Stanley of Bickerstaffe from the Alderley line but he’s supposedly buried in Virginia (no he isn’t) and has a lot of kids for someone dying at age 28.

This page might be helpful in keeping the baronets separate.

And here’s the “culprit”
Thomas Stanley of New Kent County
From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Stanley-103
Note The data included in Thomas's Find-a-Grave Memorial is unsourced fictional nonsense. There is no connection between this Thomas and the Stanley's of Bickerstaff. His parentage and exact place and time of birth are unknown. His 2 wives names are unknown. ....

Now find the rest of his family in Virginia.
