I can contribute about:
Rabbi Yehuda Weil
According to Naftali Aaron Wakstein, the information is correct
I don't know who his father was,
For being descendant of RambaN,
It makes sense to me, but if that is true, it is probably missing a generation or several generations

No, I mean this profile:
Rabbi Yehuda Weil
To his father, I believe there is a mistake here, because in Hebrew it says his name is unknown, however In English, someone wrote :juda, that's a mistake.
Quite coincidentally, Naftali Wakstein published his new article today , The article relates, among other things, to the weil family and the relationship with haramban.
I quickly read a small part of the article, and there is a reference to the context of ramban to weil family.
From a quick read I learned that the connection to ramban is true.
Yesterday I called Naftali Wakstein and scheduled to chat tomorrow, so if I have an update, I'll update.
Yes, Naphtali Wakstein confirmed that According to tradition the weil family is a haramban descendant when I asked him How exactly, because I want to connect the two families, he answered me that they are known to be descendants, but it is not known exactly how
I wrote to curators at geni and i was told to leave things as they are now.
.
I also asked about the connection between Rashi and King David. A few months ago Naftali Wakstein told me that according to Jewish tradition, Rashi is descended from King David But the names of 22 people between Joshua Zimri and yohanan hasandlar are not entirely known, two weeks ago I realized from him that he came to new and interesting information on the subject, and he is studying it,.
