Erica Howton thank you!

I'm working my way forward from George Abbott, Sr., of Rowley
Unfortunately, his son, Dea. Nehemiah Abbott and grandson, Nehemiah Abbott, of Topsfield lived in Linebrook Parish of Ipswich/Topsfield. Not every birth, baptism or death finds its way from there to Ipswich VR.
Should I trust Lemuel Abbott's Descendants of George Abbott, of Rowley, Mass., of his joint descendants with George Abbot, Sr., of Andover, Mass: of the descendants of Daniel Abbott, of Providence, R.I.; of some of the descendants of Capt. Thomas Abbott, of Andover, Mass.; of George Abbott, of Norwalk, Ct.; of Robert Abbott, of Branford, Ct.; with brief notes of many others of the name, original settlers in the United States?

DAR husband of SARAH X:
John Shepherd
two wives and 20 children.
I have posted here: https://www.geni.com/discussions/245980?msg=1591256
and here: https://www.geni.com/discussions/217560?msg=1591261
and here: https://www.geni.com/discussions/220784?msg=1591266
and am giving a half sister a parent to make her a full sister and discover the DAR profile needs work as well.
He should likely be disconnected from both wives and all children and add back a Sarah Unknown and the DAR proven children with others added with sources.
Can I get some extra eyes on these, please?

I disconnected Sarah Jennings Rash from John Shepherd as no children are attached and then I get this duplicate possibility Sarah Shepherd with "sisters" of same name:
Sarah Shepherd
Sarah Shepherd
Sarah Shepherd
Sarah Shepherd

Terrible mess.

I think
John Shepherd 's children are close to correct now.
The Smart Matches show a Sarah middle name Jennings last name Rash but these appear to be two different women Sarah Jennings and Sarah Rash who each married a Shepherd man. I originally came to them with a daughter Nancy who had been smushed with another Nancy and these are the daughters of the two Sarah's and their Shepherd husbands.
I have done a lot of work on them and just need some help to look at what remains since these are curated profiles involved and no response until I ran into them today.
A Geni user had started a Discussion a long time back but had no replies and I only saw it after seeing the mismerge and investigating further.
I am stepping off now and will revisit especially if tagged but these are not relatives and so I may not KNOW to come back to them

Emily,
Both Dea. Nehemiah Abbott and Nehemiah Abbott, of Topsfield have probate records. The son Thomas Abbott who died in 1659 also has a will in which he names his brothers. You will also find land records related to estate settlement. As just one example, here is the deed in which Thomas's brothers (George, Nehemiah, and Thomas2) agree on the estate division: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G9ZZ-BVZ8?i=354&am...

But, this is a case in which the 2-volume set by Lemuel Abbott is in almost all cases very accurate and well-sourced. Those volumes are a good place to start.

Does he need a wife Agnes added to the profile or is the will someone else?:
John Moore
I am seeing dates for him from FAG but did his father have another wife before Roxanna Moore ?
Five sons of Robert Moore are named in his 1750 will but can we find them in other records to be sure these are their correct dates?

Please see Robert Moore
I think my "6th great grandfather" needs disconnected.
I think he has been confused for the son of Robert and Roxanne and much as I love them, I don't think they are the same

I meant to tag the Discussion: https://www.geni.com/discussions/255799?msg=1591844

Thomas Post isn't listed in his father's bio, he died before his teens, but yet he married and had a child. The death date, wife and child came from this merge, which was a good merge. https://www.geni.com/merge/view?revision_id=82720539140

The son, Joseph Post has a death date that matches this FAG and put him with his grandparents and a different birth date. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/111055606/joseph-post

This FS tree also confirms what FAG has. https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LKDP-G1J

Presuming we move the son to his grandparents, should Thomas stay with those parents?

There are relationship locks on some of these profiles, so I'm unable to do some of this.

Nathaniel Rudd, Sr. also has some issues.

According to NAFH, Nathaniel Rudd is connected to the wrong Mary Post as his wife. The Mary he is supposed to be married to was born in 1662 in Norwich, daughter of Hester Hyde and John Post. Nathaniel and Mary had 3 children, Jonathan, Mary and Lydia. Relationships are locked.

Here's John Post and Hester Hyde. They were disconnected in 2011.

John Post

William Hyde, of Norwich is locked to his parents, and one parent and an unknown parent.

Thomas Lee, of Sussex has no relationship tab. His bio and information I'm finding says he only had 3 children.

Thomas Lee came from England in 1641, with his wife and three children, but he died at sea. Source is attached.

Could I please get Abagail Butt MPd, so she doesn't end up confused with Abigail Rudd which is already MPd.

The Abigail that is already a MP was already confused with the other Abigail, because Abigail Butt's husband had been attached to Abigail Hartshorn, so this merge needs to be completed, too.
