Joan BEAUFORT, Queen of Scots - Too Many Children

Joan Beaufort, Queen of Scots My 18th great aunt.

My maternal great-grandmother had 13 children: Hazel Marie Hudson They don't build them like they used to.

Joan Beaufort, Queen of Scots is my 17th great grandmother.

Only the first eleven are her children. The rest beginning with the Nevilles should be deleted.

Looks like our Joan got confused with Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmorland (for starters).

Could have been caused by a "Smart Match"? I noticed GenealogieOnline sources for the added profiles. Are those profiles added automatically just by clicking on smart match? (I have no experience with smart matches, so wondered if that was how it happened.)

It is unlikely to be exactly correct but may be. It did use to occasionally happen. Also, undoubtedly, in the days of much higher birth rates and higher incidence of parent(s) mortality leaving behind orphans, those orphans would be taken into other families as one of their own. It was almost unheard of in those days to allow homelessness. Also, divorces happened occasionally, and remarriages would often bring the joining of stepsiblings as if all were full siblings. The records would not indicate so. The older a mother got in childbearing years the more likely she would suffer a fatal complication giving birth, after already having many children. Remember, birth control then was abstinence and that was it.

Unless you are an active researcher though I would not worry too much about it. Myself, as I am not actively researching for a few years now, letting DNA and others research fill in the blanks on my tree with the goal in about 5 years from now going through my now gargantuan GENI.com tree and seeing just how much of it is backed up with written documentation from the time period in question.

It does seem to me that in some circumstances, revisions are not recorded for changes. I would have thought that this should not be the case - it is certainly not desirable - but does seem to be happening.

For example, the removal of all of those additional children is not logged as a revision.

Is this a curator thing? Regardless, I think that the audit trail should still be recorded.

Vi i am a gran,gran child of Joan Beaufort,and she got many of them😀
