Did this John Mills Sr. truly have three sons named John? His About section even shows all three of them being from the same wife- Joan Russell, even though that's not how they're connected on Geni. The connections as they are now have 3 of his four wives connected to this John having a son named John. There has to be some bad merges or some-name confusion going on here, I'm thinking.

Now look?
There is a Joan Russell duplicate somewhere but I don't see her now... she will be back.

I see her. I'll merge the two Joans.

Well, I'm back to this family again and wondering what the source / documentation for this John Mills parents are.

His Wik shows no parents. There's nothing about them in his About section, unless i missed it.

Ancestry Hints just add to the confusion because they show the John Mills and his wife Joan Russell both born 1605 and died 1683.

Unless there is something validating the parentage of this John, it would be best not to have unproven parents connected.

A year later and I'm back here with the same questions about the parentage of both John Mills I and his wife Joan. I keep running into the problem that I don't know if I connect to any of the people beyond them since nothing seems proven, which is why unproven connections shouldn't be done on Geni because it can give false kinship connections and doesn't help with the genealogy.
