More Corrections

Work done October 26, 2012

Erastus Rowe Gee K2QE-QNQ marriage to Mary Cotton 1700-1776.

This marriage never took place. Mary was dead before Erastus was born.

The marriage was deleted.

Joseph Boyce Andrus marriage to Lydia Rosette French.  Lydia was married to Joseph’s twin brother Benjamin Boyce Andrus.  The children listed for Joseph and Lydia belong to Benjamin and Lydia.  They are partially duplicated in each marriage.

On May 1 2012 I put the following note on Joseph’s record In NFS:

Joseph Boyce Andrus has mistakenly been named Joseph Benjamin Andrus in some of the records attached and combined with this one. Emma Maude Gee is the spouse. The unknown spouse listed here and the four daughters associated thereto do not belong to Joseph. They belong to his brother Benjamin Boyce Andrus. I have contacted New Family Search and they have declined to correct this. I have contacted Roger Bohman who has contributed to this record, but he is unable to edit the relationship. We await the time when we can correct this record.  

Also in the disputes on this record were the following comments:

Relationship to spouse: Lydia Rosetta French Note: Lydia Rosetta French was married to Benjamin Boyce Andrus, the twin brother of Joseph.

Relationship to spouse: Lydia Rosetta French Note: Lydia Rosetta French was my Grandmother, and not the wife of Joseph Boyce Andrus. Her husband was Benjamin Boyce Andrus, twin brother to Joseph Boyce Andrus

1 year ago by TrudaWhitfield1

The time has come and this marriage will be deleted.

A second marriage with an unknown spouse lists two children; Margaret Grace and Ruby Jacquetta.  These are the children of Lydia and Benjamin.  This marriage will also be deleted.

The record of Joseph Boyce Andrus and his wife Emma Maude Gee is now correct.

Salmon Gee the father of Lysander was never married to Deborah Reed.  This marriage is deleted.  For some reason the program hung up and would not let me delete the relationship.  I will try again later.  I was successful.

Added the death date for Sarah Watson Crane Gee.

William Gee the father of Zopher and the son of Solomon is linked on NFS and Family Tree as being married to Mary Harwood Barnham.  I have been over this previously, but was not able to get support to correct it.  Her husband was William McGee from Guilford North Carolina.  I am deleting this relationship [William gee to Mary Harwood Barnham]. The program would not let me delete.  I will try again later. I was successful,

Sarah Caroline Gee and Lyman Omer Littlefield were never married in this life.  This marriage was deleted.

Here I must note that although the marriages above were deleted, the sealings that were done remain intact.  They can be viewed by scrolling down and looking at the temple ordinances.  The proposed opening up of Family Search Family Tree to the general public will not allow viewing of the ordinances by non-members of the church.

Look here for further corrections.  I am in the correcting mood.
