Thank you, Kimberly! 😘💝

Could someone merge the two profiles of my sister:
http://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000031730831302?fsession_id=1...

Thank you :-)

Toril, done

Merging always opens up new avenues of family, often adding limbs where none were before. In this case I would merge the two. If you don't like the merger you can always remove or separate them later.

Hi Curators, I've been trying to get help with splitting an incorrectly merged tree.
This profile of Aliza Nechama Freedman (and the family connected to her) delted and overwrote the Aliza Freedman (Davis) of our tree: Private User.
I had to add the correct profile for Aliza Freedman again, but was unable to correct the problem with her parents: Private. But she is now listed as the "wife" of the incorrect Aliza.
The parents of Aliza Freedman (Davis) were deleted (not by me). They should be, father Bertram Davis and mother Rosie (Rhoda) Davis .
I would be most grateful for your assistance.

Private User, can you check if corrected

Private User
Working on it

Private User
You go ahead

Please help merging

http://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000005076399012?return=merge_...

It always returns message as ---You approved a merge on jaganadha rao marella

Jadra & Angus, thank you so so much! Now correct! Really appreciate your help.

Mary Ann Palmer

has ended up with 4 parents (and I apologize if it's me that caused the problem) --

the ones she should KEEP are George Palmer and Mary Palmer. The ones she should LOSE are James Thomas Palmer and Mary Ann Palmer. Can she get detached from those last two?

Thanks.

@Anne Brannen please check now

Private User -- thank you!

re Giovanni II Paleologo, marchese del Monferrato
He was the son of Teodoro and Argentina, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_II,_Marquess_of_Montferrat
Wikipedia does not mention any marriage or children for Demetrius: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demetrius_of_Montferrat
Unfortunately I cannot disconnect John/Giovanni from the wrong father Demetrius because of the error message "would split the tree"
This error message itself is wrong, because Demetrius is well connected to the big tree

Ard van Bergen I removed the wrong father From Giovanni II Paleologo

thanks, Rafi Kornfeld (c)
and could you also have a look at the issue about Galeazzo II Visconti ?

re Ordulf III, duke of Saxony
please assign the correct parents: Bernhard and Eilika
Geni denies me to do it myself (would split the tree, which again is utter nonsense)

Ordulf's parents are fixed.

A bit further up in Ordulf's tree, there are some yellow triangles that you also could take a look at?

Some tangled up Benton families, which I believe I've figured out. Please to help with the unmerges?

Background: Jesse Benton, the brother of Thomas Hart Benton (the guy who shot Andrew Jackson before one became a senator and the other became a President) has been conflated with a different Jesse Benton.

this Jesse Benton -- Jesse Benton, II, of NC & TN -- is properly married to Mary "Polly" Childress. BUT they had no children. They stayed in Tennesee and are buried there. So his son Benjamin Franklin "Doc" Benton needs to get disconnected. Evidence -- Tennessee histories, marriage records.

THIS Jesse Benton -- Jesse Benton, of NC & AL is properly married to Barnissa Benson, and is the father of Franklin "Doc" Benton -- Jesse and Barnissa stayed in Alabama and are buried there. The Phoebe to whom he is married wasn't married to him.

She was married to a third Jesse Benton, born in 1864 in Kentucky. So can she be detached from the Jesse Benton she's married to? We can give her another one. Evidence -- marriage records, death records.

I totally get how these three men got conflated. And now the conflations are showing up in family trees across the web. So the trees aren't useful in this case.

thanks!

re: nearby Ordulf ... I took care of the ones which were obvious; there may still be some further away which require knowledge of the relationships.

Ard van Bergen about merging the profile of Lionel of Antwerp, 1st Duke of Clarence you need to contact Ofir Friedman he made the profile MP and locked the profile .

Anne:
I've separated the 3 Jesse's (the 3rd came in with a match once Phoebe was separated). They are currently:
Jesse Benton, of NC & AL m. Barnissa
Jesse Benton, II, of NC & TN m. Mary
Jesse Benton, Sr. m. Phoebe.

If more work is needed, please start discussions under the appropriate profile. I think there is still some cleanup of the children of the first two needed.

Yay! Thank you. I will clean up the line I know and start discussions where applicable.

Dr. John McDaniel Blair

had three wives, and several children; I've got things mostly sorted at this point, BUT two children need to get disconnected from Nancy Due as their mother --

they are two of the children of John Blair's first marriage, to Elizabeth Fowler.

Oscar McDaniel Blair needs to be disconnected, and then merged with Oscar McDaniel Blair

William Nathaniel Blair needs to be disconnected and then merged with William Nathaniel Blair

You can see by their birthdates that there is a problem; they are born long before John Blair's marriage to his third wife.

thanks!

Anne Brannen - done.
