@John Jordan, IV, of Gatwick

I'm in the process of attempting to add my Jordan line in on Geni, only to find that it seems folks have combined John Jordan IV and his brother George into one person named John George Jordan with two wives, the Berwick wife of John and the WIlliamson wife of George. This needs to be corrected. John and George were brothers with different wives.

It's incorrect info on online sites like this that have resulted in this confusion: John George Jordan IV ancestors descendants (abt 1550 - 1616) m. Margery Berwick (abt 1551). m. Mary Williamson (1556 - 1626).

This is a source regarding the marriage of George and Mary. I find nothing validating that his brother John also married her.

Thank you for your assistance.

Unfortunately the “bad merge” on Geni was too long ago to undo, so you making a new profile for George Jordan, of Gatwick was the best solution. I’ve made MP and added curator notes. If there are any children to change parents needed, could be done through the relationships tab. Good catch, thank you very much.
