Genealogy faux pas with the Ellis family from Cornwall

I had to disconnect William Ellis as a son of DAVID LLOYD ELLIS, always best to check pedigree, who had seven children, but no WILLIAM.  No source material and it is one of the early GENCOM's which are problematic.  I have written up notes for his supposed son Pascow Ellis too.

Please, Zoe, don't use all caps in your posts. All caps makes it very hard to read what you have written!

I usually do write In lower case Jim ;-)

You must have been excited, then! ;)
In a hurry at the time, and it is good to sort out all these old profiles which have no source material, as nothing worse than profiles connected to people they are not related to. EUROARISTO.

Zoe,

The profile has no source information.

Please provide sources that support and/or disprove the data on the page.

Thanks so much.

I have written up 7 children on profile comments for David Lloyd Ellis.  Also on geni.com there is misleading information where I have posted a link for pedigree of the Ellis family of William Ellis profile on geni for the Yales of Wales. Too many people getting lead astray by false genealogy.
