Disproven Existence Notice: Birdie Harding, sister of US President Warren Harding [closed]

Question

While working some duplicate profiles within the family of [[Harding-4|US President Warren Harding]], I noted that many of the family members have "nicknames".   However, I have been able to account for all of the siblings of the President, leaving this one, Birdie, as disproven.   The original disproven note was put on this profile in 2012.

I made the original assumption that this was just a person attached to the incorrect parents, but after a thorough search of Ancestry.com and Family Search for records, there were known supporting a person by this name with these dates.  

After a lengthy search of the web for ANY evidence of Birdie's existence, I can ONLY find numerous unsourced family trees that list her as a sister of the president with these dates.

Comments

Great work, Robin.

I thought about that, Eddie, but, due to the number of "fake trees" on Ancestry.com, I am afraid that someone will just recreate the profile, again.   And it is against WikiTree Policy https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Recycling_WikiTree_IDs
