There is another entry for a daughter Mercy, but it says that she was born April 24, 1711 in Harwich, Barnstable, Massachusetts, USA
Death: June 5, 1763 (52) Plympton, Massachusetts, United States

I wonder if the birth and death information got messed up? Not only are the dates exchanged, but the location of birth and death.

Private User was working on the Bradford descendants and may know a definitive source. I am looking at http://www.concentric.net/~pvb/GEN/govbrad.html but I don't think it includes her.

You mean a second profile, correct? Mercy Waterman

This is a Web genealogy (below) so could be incorrect. I need too compare the two Mercys and they should be merged and the correct information chosen. I think you're saying that one of the profiles has confused the dates / birth and death places.

I see what you mean but haven't found a definitive source but assume that the above is correct. That is birth in Harwich and death in Plympton.

There are a lot of Mercy Freemans but the daughter of Jonathan Freeman and Mercy Bradford was born April 24, 1711 likely in Harwich. Do you want me to merge and correct?

Go ahead and merge/correct anything as you see fit. I just copied what we had from a relative who sent us a huge family tree across many pages. I had found other dates incorrect (looking at wiki pages and the like) so I would not be surprised if you find more. Go ahead and change as you see fit. Is there anything I need to do to "allow" to change it since I think I added her in.

I will do this over the weekend. Let me know if you find other discrepancies. You and I are 13th cousins 4 times removed. I think our common ancestor is: Adrian Fortescue, K.B.

When I was working on the Bradfords I was mainly trying to get wives with the correct husbands, children with the right parents, etc. I knew there were some dates that would probably have to be checked and changed.
