@Hans Christian Mathison Wentzel
I'm having a problem. I know it's of my own making, but it needs to be fixed. Christian Matthias Hansen Wentzel is my ancestor 7 generations back. I merged his mother's profile with the world tree. She is Anne Cathrine Hagen Wentzel and her husband is Hans Christian Mathison Wentzel.Hans Christian was given the wrong father, according to a very comprehensive online genealogy of the Wentzel family that has sources clearly indicated. I'll provide the link: http://www.erikwenzel.nl/wenzeldb/wenzel-00008.htm
The geni profile had Hans Christian's father as Hans Baltzer Wentzel.
According to Erik Wenzel's tree--and he is the authority:
Christian Matthias Wentzel (Wenzel).
Glaspuster i Biri (1801), = on 24-12-1759 in Bergstedt (D-HH), + 1826 in Biri (N), son of Hans Henrich Wentzel (Wenzel) and Maria Olavsdatter (Larsdatter).
# (1) on 01-07-1783 in Hurum (N) Catrina Hagen.
* ca. 1760 in Jevnaker (N)?
# (2) on 21-06-1792 in Hurum (N) Elisabeth Christine Christensdatter (Kristensdatter).
* 1756 in Hurum (N)? + 1830.
I made the change and added several generations of ancestors. The problem is that Hans Henrich Wentzel now has all of Hans Baltzer Wentzel's children, and I don't know how to detach them.
I have contacted profile managers but my experience is that they don't do anything about making changes.
Can you help solve my problem? I'm getting better at merging and avoiding mistakes, but I can't figure my way out of this one.
Thanks,
Martha
