Locked profile with no sources. Parents appear correct but wrong Ward husband? per https://media.geni.com/p14/e5/0c/e6/e7/534448611be70d46/46155_b2897...

Cynthia, this is a tremendously different generation from your source document. Am I right that it’s from the Generals and their Kin by James Branch Cabell?

I would pay no attention to these possibly bogus early English profiles, they are likely locked down for that reason.

I’ll find you the real Mary Goode & Seth Ward.

Mary Ward & Seth Ward, IV

I will add your page as source document. It’s easier to add to more profiles that way.

(I have the book name wrong I think but I’m pretty sure of the author)

Oh yikes! Several centuries apart
Yes, apparently another example of similarly named folks

I have worked on Wards many times since my husband and I both have direct Ward lines.
I have visited the FtDNA Y Project but not in quite a while and I have not worked on my Webber/Ward line in a while but ran into them again today while looking at something here. You know how that rabbit hole goes

Thank you

Wikitree https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Ward-2187 has notes for possible parents of Seth Ward who married Katherine Smith
I will have to check to see if there have been any updates

I won’t support adding English parents unless peer reviewed publication. It’s too important and too visible. The burden of proof for “across the pond” in this era has to be high.

I do understand that.
There's a ton of info available, however.
Just needs to be added to Geni and my main focus has been in tree building and correcting the tree as I go.
There are so many bad/working trees because they are not sourced.
Thank you for the clean up today.
