We could all use help. Unlimited time would be a nice New Year's present. But precisely where on your tree do you need help most, and think that results are most likely?
FYI #2: It may be a reminder that it is not part of the Geni Curator "job description" for the Curators (volunteers) to help with genealogical research ... though a number of them may choose to do so! As a reminder, the purpose of this discussion topic is for those issues which require the 'extra tools' which are available only to Curators.

to quote dan this place is not for research help... ok?
I fear the answer is not straightforward. Both the Geneanet and Racineshistoire line-ups (and then some others, too) seem to be incorrect/conflicting on other points (too many Guillaume and Raoul in those families for comfort, I guess). I'm digging into some books in order to have clarity about the related lordships, as the inheritance of titles may bring some clarity (I hope :-) ).
Thank you, George. I'm glad I didn't "jump" when there is more to learn.

Private User,
*According to the first and second link site she does have the right father. I do however wonder why his first name is Samuel instead of Solomon.
* 1- http://www.dutchjewry.org/genealogy/ashkenazi/17372.htm.
*Vogeltje Salomon Meerhout, died 11 May 1880 Amsterdam, Muiderberg cemetery: Vogeltje Meerhoud, wife of de Haan., daughter of Samuel Zanwil Abraham Meerhout Mehrholz and Judith Jettele Philip Peis Harwich.

Martin RhNegativ and Erica Howton, it took me on multiple paths where many conflicts and errors needed tp be addressed but, in the end, it turns up that Martin's request about de Tancarville was correct. A lot remains to be done, though, in the related families (not to mention all the duplicates that exist there :-( )
Martin RhNegativ, about Louise d'Humières... the description in her profile is obviously wrong, in the sense that the reference in The Peerage is wrong. Louise was the granddaughter of Humières/Hangest (like our line-up on Geni suggests) - not the daughter. These grandparents died before most of their grandchildren (including Louise) were born. Curatorship of Louise was assigned to 'Customer Service', I now took it over and added a curator note.
The correct line-up is given in "Histoire de la Maison Royale de France" of Père Anselme.
We could delete the note about The Peerage, but by doing so it's more difficult to say that The Peerage was wrong LOL. If we take it out, others may find it and say "Hey, I got better info on The Peerage" - and change it again ;-) Better to leave some trace, I think.
