The maiden name of Francis's wife is not known, and the profile for Elizabeth Gains attached to his profile will soon be changed to Elizabeth Unknown.

In addition, Francis's daughter Elizabeth married Collier, not major. Her profile had her name changed to Frances (no support) and since I don't see any support for Elizabeth m Major in this profile, I intend to edit their profiles, to include changing their given names to Jane (who married Major) and Elizabeth (who married Collier).

If you have any reliable sources for her, please post!

Thanks, Liz

Hi! I just attached the profile for Jane Eyremongre-1 as daughter of Francis and Elizabeth (Gaines-19) Iremonger on nothing more than the information in the profiles (Francis's profile says a child was the wife of George Majors & this profile is attached as wife to George Major).

A couple of concerns... last record of Francis noted in his profile is 1665 & Jane m George was born 1680. Also, the union of Francis & Elizabeth Gains is not proven.
