Barbara,

Maybe I'm not understanding your message right, but do you have a question for someone?

Comments

I think Barbara is saying that the death date shown on the profile is too early. I revised the death date from after 1698 to after 1713 based on sources cited on the profile. I didn't see a source supporting 1720.

It is usually more effective to put a highly specific comment like that one in a profile message on the profile.

Thank you Ellen for your reply. I checked Barbara’s contributions and see that she only posts comments on profiles or G2G. And this is not the first comment on this specific profile, so if she holds the source of the 1720 claim, maybe she could share that source with you.

Barbara doesn't have pre-1700 certification, so she wouldn't be eligible to edit this profile.
