Notes

The parents in the trees listed below are not conflicting parents. They are parents for two different women, both named Mary Gaylord. One, the daughter of Walter and Mary (Stebbins) Gaylord, married John Day of Hartford, Connecticut. The other, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth (Hull) Gaylord, married Joseph Griswold of Windsor, Connecticut.

Not one of the five linked trees at FamilySearch listed below gives even a single source (other trees are not sources.) To make matters worse, someone has combined the profiles at Family Search of two different women into one file, again with no sources or evidence.:: Primary source records are evidence that the women are not the same.

Conflicting parents? [No. One set of parents for each distinct woman with the same name, and different husbands and parents.]
