I've noticed a lot of activity in my merge issues lately with @Edward Riggs, his wives, and children. Edward was married twice- @Mary Browne and @Mary Munn being the wives. Someone has merged the two Mary's together. They each had children with Edward. I am descended from Mary Brown Rigg's son John, and Mary Munn Rigg's son Joseph. Mary Munn Riggs also had a son John, so it was very difficult and confusing getting the two wives and their children straightened out.
To further complicate things, Joseph, son of Edward Riggs and Mary Munn Riggs, had a daughter @Mary Riggs.. She married @Thomas Cushman.. Someone has added a profile for a Mary Riggs Cutter instead of Mary Riggs as the wife of Thomas Cushman.
I'll admit, all my information is only what I've found on the net. I, too, found Mary Riggs Cutter as the wife of Thomas Cushman, but dismissed it as being incorrect. While I can't prove my way of thinking is the right one, I do believe it to be correct, based on the amount of information I found on the net over a very long period of time.
I don't have the experience or ability to straighten this all out, and would appreciate some help. Thanks!
Tammy,
Sounds like it could use a Project. Why don't you try opening one? There's a link as a footer at the bottom of the page.
If you get it open, please add me as a "project collaborator." You do that by going to my profile, selecting "more actions," "Project Options," drop down, close the box.
Then please post the URLs of the profiles in question so people can add to the Project for action.
We'll get it done!
More help welcome of course. :)
