I notice you have just added Ann Alflat Alflatt-1 who was born in Bristol about 1614, as the mother of William Stratton who was born in Shrivenham about 1600 and who actually married Ann Allflat in 1632 in Bristol.
i suspect you have perhaps been relying on the “Book of Stattons” possibly also several family trees that have also mixed up some of the connections between Shrivenham and Bristol.
i suggest you have a look at the following profiles research notes where these matters are discussed
William Stratton of London and Tenterdon who did not come from Shrivenham as suggested in the book https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Stretton-554
and the shrivenham Strattons https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Stratton-163
you might also read the g2g

also why do you think that Mary (unknown) whitehead

as the daughter of william stratton of Shrivenham.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.

Welcome back. We are so happy you decided to upgrade to the Family Member level.
Please visit our tutorial pages to learn how to use WikiTree: How To Use WikiTree. They will save you time, energy, and frustration as you add your family profiles.
Exploring the site is the best way to learn. One way to do that is to check out the drop-down menus on the top right side of your profile page. Finding a known ancestor and collaborating with the profile manager is another great way to start.
You mentioned that you don’t know much about your family tree yet. I assume you are new to genealogy. No problem! Every genealogist is a beginner at some point. Take your time, keep track of sources, and ask questions. Check here for tips.
Questions? You can always use the G2G link in the Help Menu to find answers.
