The inconsistency report states:

John MacLean / McLean/ McLain should be born after his parent Deborah MacLean (Adams)
Tip: Correct the birth date of John MacLean / McLean/ McLain (born April 07, 1664) or Deborah MacLean (Adams) (born 1720).

In my own personal tree on Ancestry, I haven't included this John nor his mother, for the reasons stated in the About section where it states that the parents of John who was married to Mary McKinnon haven't been proven.

There's nothing in the About section to document this John as the father of the attached son named John and clearly he can't be the son Deborah MacLean (Adams) if she wasn't born until 1720, many years after the birth of this John.

For these reasons, unless documentation can be attached to the profile to prove the connections, I think this profile should be detached as the father of the son John and from the Deborah Adams as his mother.
