On 15 Apr 2023 Cindi (Hutchinson) Laurent wrote on Hutchinson-438: Derrick, I totally agree with your observation that this profile has been "contaminated" with one's wishes rather than documented facts. My father is a y-dna member of this family and is a member of the FTDNA Hutchinson Project. There are 342 members of this group, however, only 14 members belong to this branch of the Hutchinson family and share the same STRs. Also, the sources do not support the name "Hutchins", nor is there any place where I've read where Thomas had a middle name, let alone the name Lawrence. And the place of birth could not be in Somerset. That's in the southwest of England, quite a long ways by horse and carriage to birth a baby and then return back to Owthorpe. Someone who is pre-1500 certified needs to clean up this profile, it's a mess and full of errors. And someone plagiarized others' works. Quote marks and/or reference numbers are needed. Gracious thanks given to anyone who will fix this profile!
