No one has merged a tree of mine until you came along. You offer every hallmark of a con artist: I don't know you, you acted without permission or notice, and I have encountered others on this website -- long ago now -- who were simply collecting other people's ancestors for whatever their own opaque purposes were. That is why I am keen to 'keep it clean' for now.
I trust the information that I have recorded here, largely to preserve it until I retire and can look into the topic more deeply. (As well, the longer I wait, the more resources come online.)
The generations under discussion are troublesome for merges: many repeated names (Old Testament names were in vogue), many name changes after the journey to the New World, spotty records-keeping throughout the era, plus the usual nonsense of bad recall, bad translations, assimilation, blood feuds, old secrets, and, of course, dying young.
FInally, as to Geni, it is my understanding that this place is on its last legs, kept breathing only as a feeder stream to MyHeritage. I offer in evidence that when my uncle died, I was obliged to ask someone to mark him deceased because the editor controls had been locked down. I'm kinda astonished to see so much posting going on.
Problem with this page?
