Anna and Hannah Rawlins

I get a weekly e-mail from Family Search.  Sometimes I find that there are errors in the records.  Here are some that I found recently. I used the e-mail embedded in Family Tree to write a message to someone who had put a record on Joseph Sharp Rawlins family.

In the 1880 census the family consists of the mother Anna (really Hannah Stringfellow) and the daughter Anna (probably Hannah Marie).

Obviously Anna LJRN-3R8 and Hannah Marie KWC3-MPH are the same individual born the same year  They should be merged. Do you want to do this or do you want me to take care of it.

Sincerely,

Laurence Gee, M.D.

 

They have not responded, so I will merge the two.

 

I also found a record that needed correction, so I wrote the following to support.

 

Sarah Gee
16 September 1867 – 28 July 1931 • KWDM-HC6 ​
Although there is a sealing to parents for Sarah noted on 8 August 1979 in Ogden. This child was born in the covenant, the parents were sealed in Lysander's and Theresa's home in Salt Lake by Brigham Young on 18 July 1850.
LYSANDER WAS SEALED TO THERESA AND MARYETTA AT THE SAME TIME. THIS WAS BEFORE
THE ENDOWMENT HOUSE WAS BUILT. THEY WERE SEALED IN LYSANDER`S HOUSE BY BRIGHAM YOUNG. Reference Sealings Microfilm Number 0183374 found in the Family History Library second floor in the special collections. The sealing was at the Gee's house in Salt Lake City on July 18, 1850 at 5:10 P.M. The entry is found on page 725. Witnesses were Truman O. Angell and Thomas Bullock.

I found another error while looking at the descendants of Erastus Rowe Gee and wrote the following:

Today I discovered that three children of John Ether Gee KW8T-LDR were actually the children of his brother Edgar Lafayette Gee KWC1-XLF.

I have successfully removed Olive Gee LJTN-ZXT and combined her with Olive Gee KWCQ-GJ3 and Clendon Edgar Gee LJTN-ZFX and combined him with Clendon Edgar Gee KWCZ-BDF.

Letho Lafayette Gee KWZ6-BFP has already received his ordinances. The Letho L. K2W8-CTB in this record is not the son of John Ether Gee, but of his brother Edgar Lafayette Gee KWC1-XLF. When I try to combine these two records, I cannot merge these records. Could you please have Data Administration take care of this for me?

Laurence Gee, M.D.

Now Letho is with the right family.
