Hi Erica,
I can look at the revision history. But in this case it's not helping me, but that might be because I've been looking at this too long.
Here is John Hobbs, 1660 - 1731: John W. Hobbs Sr.
John Hobbs II 1712 - 1768
John S. Hobbs, II
John Hobbs 1734 - 1799
John Hobbs, III
I will start with the main question, If you go to the first link I provided above, and click on Joshua and Joseph Hobbs....link you will see a chart, on the chart it reads:
Ho11 y Hobbs b about 1650 ? possibly John b 26 Sep 1658
Now this person listed as "possibly John" reads to me as a separate person from the person described in the box below:
Ho10 John Hobbs b about 1680 in probably England, d 1731
My issue is that either I'm just simply confused with all the John's, their wives and children OR we (as in the various managers/ancestors of all these John's) have blended two of these John's together.
At one time, John's wife Susannah Susannah Sugers Hobbs was believed to have been married to William Powell but from what I've read that would be untrue. So I'd like to delete the Powell w/in her name. From Robert Moore "his will he refers to Susannah's children that she had in her "inlopement by a certain William Powell." "Susannah was not a widow of William Powell" There is a long explanation w/in the write-up by Moore.
How do these type of revisions work? The above one of deleting a name, seems easy enough. I'd imagine I'd notify the manager(s), show the evidence.
When it comes to more major changes like dates, children, wives, etc it seems like more of a consensus/permission from several would be a good thing.
Thanks for your help!
Jill
