Elizabeth Bateman is the mother yet her son Benjamin [[Lyon-165]] is linked to her as husband.

I looked all though the change logs, can't see how this happened.

Who dares do a detach?

One of the managers must've put some information in wrong.

There's nothing substantive for sourcing on her profile (entirely user submitted Ancestry.com info). Looks like on Benjamin there might be better sourcing but I didn't follow the links. Obviously an error the way it is so detaching would make sense. Someone probably typed in a wrong profile number and didn't catch the newly minted circular family unit (which I think should have thrown up date flags on the screen but perhaps not).
