I have been informed and can see there is an error in the time line.

Margaret’s (Robert’s) Cull

The birth and marriage dates do not match up. 

Would you be able to help me correct the dates and most likely the person if she is the same or placed against the wrong husband.

I’m not well versed with the editing tool or know where to start 

Thanks for your assistance

I have information to contribute to the profile of Margaret (Roberts) Cull. This is what I can add:

These are the sources I am using:

Should I contact one of the pre-1700 projects or know about any style guidelines before proceeding? Thank you!

There are two ways you can resolve the current issue with Margaret. 

  • leave her connected as she is to her husband and children and change her last name from Roberts to Unknown. The sources are quite clear the man she is attached to had a wife named Margaret 
  • OR disconnect her from John Cull and all the children then create for her a new husband John Cull and use the 1614 marriage source for them both. That source is quite clear that John Cull married Margaret Roberts at Guiting Power in 1614. They can remain "disconnected" from the main tree until we work out where John fits into the Cull family. 

If you choose the latter, then you will also need to create a profile for Margaret Unknown who is the mother of all those children! If you would like any help to do all that please let me know. I'm happy to work with you.

Cheers,

Elizabeth
