I ma trying to get wrong info removed from my Mary Ellen O'Brien

This person does NOT belong in my tree. The person who added her seems to think that if he finds a name like Clancy it is automatically related.
In this case Mary Ellen Clancy may have parents John Clancy and Ellen Barry but they are not the John Clancy nd Ellen Barry listed in my tree.
If you look t the dates then I think it is obvious - My John Clancy nd Ellen Barry lived in Cork Ireland and died there in the 1880's. They never went to USA. Mary Ellen Clancy was apparently born in 1881 in USA. Ellen Barry would have been in her 70's and it is virtually impossible to have a child at that age in those days and also today.

There are 2 inconsistencies listed next to the profile:
The place of birth value in a source citation doesn't match the information in the profile for Mary Ellen CLANCY resulting in a source conflict. Review the conflict.

I get emails telling me this also and advises me to correct them

Here is what we found:
Photo_silhouette_f_small Person had a child at very old age
Ellen BARRY had 1 child between the ages of 64 and 75 years old.
Tip: Correct the birth date of Ellen BARRY (born circa 1806) or the following child:
Mary Ellen CLANCY

Photo_silhouette_m_small Person had a child at very old age
John CLANCY had 1 child between the ages of 64 and 67 years old.
Tip: Correct the birth date of John CLANCY (born circa 1814) or the following child:
Mary Ellen CLANCY

John O'Gorman who entered the data for Mary Ellen also did a merge with the other Mary Clancy in the tree thus removing Mary Clancy from our tree. This was reversed by one of the Curators.

How can I fix them- we cant delete her apparently. I am assuming one of you can do so
