Her overview information states that her mother is "Unknown". But recent merges have placed at least three completely different mothers in her profile.

While the second one would appear reasonable at a glance, I believe it may be a mixup between this profile [Hannah Lamkin (Cox)] and Hannah (Demourvel) Eskridge Hannah (DaMourville) Eskridge ; so I would suggest unmerging this one and merging the two Hannah Demourvilles.

Another bad merge, this one by Geni.

I'm not sure about this one. The more I look at it the more confusing for me. But the info on this profile should help guide the curators in straightening it out.

Aha, it looks like this last merge (completed in 2017) may be where it all began to go wrong. And because it wasn't caught in time, it just got progressively worse?

Not sure about this one either, since her info says "mother unknown".

Other than this list, I only see one more merge (in 2011) which currently can't be viewed.

Okay, I see now that this Hannah married both a Demourville and a Lamkin.

Dr. Samuel Damourville, Sr.

George Lamkin

So one or two of the merges might be alright.

Hannah Demourville Eskridge is her granddaughter. So they probably are not mixed up, after all.

Daughter of James Johnson; Martha Cox (Fleet); Anne Cox (Charnock) and Mary Bennett
Wife of Samuel Mortimer Damourvell; Samuel Demoville and George Lamkin

I started a new discussion.
Will revisit ...

Thanks, Cynthia. Three different mothers can't be right, even if that's all that's wrong with it. But I couldn't figure it out, without sources and/or doing a ton of research in order to fact-check it. Maybe taking a look at the three mothers' profiles rather than the merge history, would be more productive. I don't find anything to prove any of them were her mother, but I might have missed something.

I’m not sure if I’m in the right place but I am looking for information on an Elizabeth Damourvell who married RICHARD BROWN and had a daughter, Hannah Brown, in 1745. Can anyone help me? This family tree is very confusing 😁
