Erica Howton thanks for the help.
Mary Tuttle is missing more kids, if the list in her "About" is correct.

More Tuttle fixing - Lydia Sperry is not the daughter of Caleb Tuttle & Mary (Hotchkiss) Tuttle. She is not in the list of 12 kids for Caleb (10 with Mary & 2 with Hannah).
Dan Cornett - Thanks for the fixes.
Dowling does not track Jacob Sperry although he does track his brother, Amos. I ran a Google search and have not yet found parents for Lydia Tuttle. None of the usual reliable sources have anything about her parents. WeRelate has her mother has Sarah Tuttle citing Jacobus. No father cited by Jacobus either in the entry for her christening or her death.
Hi! May I request a curator disconnect the parents and a few locked children for Phineas Pratt and Mary Priest:
Children he did *not* have which are locked onto him (and his wife Mary Priest) that need to be disconnected include:
Also his origins and parents are still unknown. Can we removed his parents and lock on some NN parents?

Using the same sources above Dregory Priest had only two child: Mary and Sarah. He had no son James. Can we unlock James and remove him as a child please:

I fixed the relationships for Mayflower Descendant John Combs. Perhaps we should lock them while they are correct:

That should clean up the first few generations of Degory Priest of the Mayflower.
Mary,
It looks like this John Madison White 1744-1808 and Sarah Gimbill where having children when Sarah was 73 if here age on FindAGrave is correct and Ezekiel Polk White was actually a son (given his father died in 1808 10 years before his birth). Even if he was not a son the next younger son James Madison White would have been born when she was 64. I'm guessing this family group is more legend than evidence based. As shown Sara was having children for 52 years. Even if she got an early start at 14 say that would still put her at 66 when she had her last child. Possibly he had more than one wife but I'd bet there are several different unrelated White families mixed up here.

I found this when I went looking for John Madison White. https://www.ancestry.com/boards/surnames.lee/839.2505.1/mb.ashx The person who posted brought up the same issue you found. I wonder if anyone ever found any actual facts concerning this family. I am reluctant to change anything without facts. I do hate leaving people with two sets of parents...
Roland Henry Baker, III Pratt, Priest & Coombs cleaned up & relationships locked.
Thank you very much for this effort.
Private User I unmerged & re merged.
Disconnected as children of Sarah Davenport White & John Harrell White , born after his death in 1807:

I descend from Degory through his daughter Sarah and then her son. However, the cousin mode kicks in so it is difficult to see the connection ABOVE what I have displayed here. Thank you for curating and locking these profiles. I became a bit nervous when I noticed all the disconnections. lol
One would think a Town Founder with many Descendants would have a bigger tree on Geni ...
Giles County TN is my neck of woods. Records are really poor at the War of 1812 generation. Also, this is “lost state of Franklin” territory.

Now I do see another death date for John Harrell White at https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/4:1:LJ5L-K5N
Marriage:
Spouse: Mary Davis
Feb 19 1798
Fauquier, Virginia
Marriage:
Spouse: Sarah Gamble
Circa 1808
South Carolina, United States
Death:
Sep 23 1815
Giles, Tennessee, United States
However that seems a mixup with another https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/134401608/john-white who is in the right place - Giles County - at the right time ...
No son James Madison White Listed at FindAGrave but maybe someone can dig in.
Erica Howton I think you cracked the case on the White family of Giles! Kudos!
Erica Howton I would like to request that you be curator for the profile of Robert Charles Anderson, FASG:
Turns out he is my 8th cousin via Mayflower Descendant Obadiah Wheeler of Concord and Sudbury. Who knew?
Hello: My name is Allyn Pratt and I am looking for information on Macuth Pratt (1595-1672). Current research shows that Macuth arrived in Mass. in 1623 (Lord Gorge's group, settled near the same location as the Weston Company had occupied) near what is now Weymouth, Mass. However, data from the church parish records show that his children were being baptized and recorded in the parish records (Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire, England) until 1637. His wife is Elizabeth Bates Pratt (born Kingham), 1600-1679, married Nov. 9, 1619, Aston Clinton, Buckinghamshire, England, is recorded as having accompanied Macuth in 1623. The youngest son, Joseph (1637 to 1720) (my ancestor?) is not recorded in the parish records but is recorded in the vital records for Weymouth, Mass.
I am requesting help in gathering information to determine, 1) is the Macuth Pratt that came to Mass. in 1632 the same Macuth Pratt from Aston Clinton?, 2) if so, then why are the church parish records recording children of Macuth and Elizabeth? Assuming Macuth and Elizabeth did not travel back and forth from Mass. to England to Mass.? 3) Who are Macuth's parents? and are Macuth Pratt and Phineas Pratt related? Phineas arrived in Mass. in 1622 on the good ship Sparrow. Although his Group were not successful he stayed and joined the Plymouth Colony and married Mary Priest (from several colonial records).
Any information is most appreciated. Best Regards, Allyn Pratt.
Diana Collins Dates & locations don’t work for Sarah Gamble to have a child at such an older age ... but now we see where the claim comes from!
