Advice before editing this pre-1700 Todd profile?

Question

I have information to contribute to the profile of Andrew Todd. This is what I can add: 

https://www.familysearch.org/tree/pedigree/landscape/LHLR-XH4

There are 38 Sources for Andrew Todd:

I will double check the resources on each entry to prove the birth, death, marriage, military etc. What do you recommend?

These are the sources I am using:

Should I contact one of the pre-1700 projects or know about any style guidelines before proceeding? Thank you!

Hi, Jane,

I'm not an expert, but I looked at the Family Search profile sources and there seem to be good primary sources there!  Good find. I'd use them to flesh out the biography and just be sure that you have a source for each fact. I have not checked out every source and did notice that there are some derivative published genealogy sources, I'd set them aside until you have used all the primary sources and then see if they really add anything. You might then add them in a "See also" section.
