Text print of the very very large gedcom file located at 

natestiles.com/2016-02-19 Merge Ancestry-WikiTree (privatized).ged.txt

Wow - that's a lotsa text.  I couldn't find my Lane family in it.
It does however provide locations and time frames and may in fact include siblings of your subject or the siblings of one or both of his parents or grandparents or  ... etc and I note that the file does contain some source materials which again of help to a researcher ...

Placed in a text word processing program and with some judicious "find and replace" commands to "clean it" ...

I have twice done such "renovation" on a gedcom text print (admittedly a tedious operation) and found clues and comments and sources to further my own researches

However, if you are  certain, no harm done ... and if nothing else, LOL, you now KNOW what this gedcom is

It may be possible to either download this, or copy and save it into a text file with a word processor or text editor. Then save the text file with a “.ged” extension and import it into a desktop genealogy program.
