Hi David, Thank you for your note. The information I have been putting on Wikitree, i acquired decades ago, either from the LDS library or Family Tree Maker records. They included Maryland Marriage records, Wills and Land Records. I wrote the information in a note book, also noting it was from a will, land record etc, but wasn't able to copy the given will or other record. Most of the info regarding Francis Adams came from a book in the Multnomah County, Oregon Library also from decades ago listing English Landed Gentry in the American Colonies by one of the early 19th century Burkes. I am unable to find my original notes with Burke's full name. I am trying to add as many of the children of my direct ancestors that there seems to be agreement as to who they are. I at the same time am trying to avoid those possible children where there may be disagreement as to their actual existence. This is a very time consuming task and in order to save time I am generalizing the source. Will be more careful in the future.
I see that you just did some work on pre-1700 profiles and that you have had your pre-1700 badge for quite some time.
The requirements for sources, especially for early profiles have been altered since you got your badge. There is now a quiz to take before having the badge; https://www.wikitree.com/quiz/pre_1700 which you can check out.
You can also read the help for pre-1700 profiles; https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles in order to understand why a source like "Ancestry.com" is not a valid source.
You previously expressed an interest in joining the Spain Project. Would you still like to do so? If so, we'd love to have you. Have a look at the project page and see which team you might like to join and I can get you the badge and into the Google group.
Sorry, just found your request. The Information comes from a book, "KNOX, James Knox, Sr and Elizabeth Craig Knox and their Descendants" compiled by Lorene K Petersen and Jennie Belle Lyle. I found the book in the main LDS Library in Salt Lake City. It very lengthy and very detailed.

The more specific the source, the better.
