This project was started to help resolve the multitude of conflicts with the parentage and marriages of the Wentworth line, dating mostly in the 1300's- 1500's. I have been using The Wentworth genealogy, comprising the origin of the name, the family in England, and a particular account of Elder William Wentworth, the emigrant, and of his descendants (1870), for source and research but have found a few other resources. I at least hope to place information and sources on the profiles to help facilitate removing the incorrect connections.
