Hassinger Ancestral Chart: Compiled in 1970 by Bernice Hassinger (1915-2004) of Birmingham, AL, wife of Richard, from sources as annotated. Provided in 1981 to William H. Creighton. The chart traces the Schuber ancestry of the Mathis family, as well as Hassinger and related lines.
Abraham Hatfield says that Cornelius "was born 1665-6, probably in New York City".[1] He was baptized in New York in 1669.[2] He died in Elizabethtown, NJ. He was "of Elizabethtown when he made his will and he is buried there.
FamilySearch says he was born and died in Hartford, CT, citing Hartford VR. However the cited reference is not a record of birth or death for Cornelius, but a genealogy of his descendant John Hatfield (b. 1806). John came to Hartford in 1826, and his family history was entered into Hartford records in 1857.[3]

Most welcome. My direct interest is actually in the Meekers. I have queried the manager of the Findagrave profile for Eunice to see if he has anything to establish that she was née Meeker.

Thanks, Debi. I'm having fun and have been quite busy. Trying not to tread too heavily. If you follow my ancestors you'll see some of the profiles I've created and edited. Happy to have any comments.
I took a look at the profile you created for Frank Weishaar. It looks pretty good. There are a couple of FAQs that you will find useful for creating stable links to Ancestry and FindAGrave. Here are the links for those FAQs:
If you will review those and start incorporating them in the profiles you are using, I think you are off to a fine start. Let me know if you have any questions about the information in them.
Exactly. That's why the WikiTree templates were created. If Ancestry or FindAGrave change the link structure, one change can be made behind the scenes by the Tech Team. Then all the links will still work.
This is the original link in that profile in which I have tried to bold the numbers that need to be in the templates. You may have to look at it in the comment reply on your profile.

The Ancestry template would be {{ Ancestry Record| 2441 | 3425048 }} . The first number is what follows dbid= and the second number follows the h=. That will create this Ancestry Record 2441 #3425048
If you want to give a link back to the Ancestry Profile that is in your tree, you would use {{ Ancestry Tree| 165662000| 362153020642 }} . The first number follows tid= and the second follows pid=. That will create this Ancestry Profile
Help! I have created a profile by mistake, when trying to add a parent. Somehow I created a new profile when I wanted to link to an existing one. I have replaced the mistaken parent with the existing one. But now we have a profile that ought to be deleted. Somehow it is already registered as Rejected merge and there's no point in merging. What should be done??
