Henry Dickinson - Combining two different immigrant families: the DICKERSON family and the DICKINSON family

Just a general note. We curators locked names for a reason: it’s much better to disconnect wrong relationships than “rewrite” a profile. So it seems like you’re seeing the result of bad merges, not “locked” data fields?

When I disconnect, I put a hyperlink to the disconnected spouse or parent, in the profile “about”, for easy reconnect if there’s a dispute.

If you’re not able to break a wrong relationship, curators are more than happy - and prompt - in the “curators, please assist” discussion Jonathan mentioned.

I’ve separated Thomas Dickinson, of Rowley
As son of Henry Dickinson & Sarah Dickinson

Just tagging Thomas Dickerson of Southold & Abigail Wager so can more easily see disconnect points needed.

Disputed siblings

Inaccuracies in the monument at the Presbyterian churchyard at Southold:[1][2] "There is no evidence that Nathaniel and John Dickinson were brothers of Philemon Dickerson."[3]

Looks like we don’t have authentic origins for any of these Dickerson / Dickinsons?
