    "https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/L64D-HYL/john-hare-1603-1686"

    John Hare 1603–1686

    Mary Scott 1604–1626

    Marriage: about 1625

    Richard Hare 1656–1729

    William are1660–Deceased

    Phillip HARE 1664–1695

    If Mary dies 1 year after marrying, how is she able to have 3 children some years after she is dead? If she was born 1804 and if she had lived she would have been 52 for the 1st child,56 for the 2nd child and 60 for the 3rd son. I suspect in the real world this is unlikely.

    Paul

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    Just in passing ...

    FYI

    This 'Category' of "Indexing", is NOT the place, to submit a post, of the nature that you have raised.

    This 'Category' of "Indexing" pertains to DOING "Indexing", in 'FamilySearch'.

    Just for future reference ...

    A post, such; as, you have raised, a more appropriate 'Category', would be either, "Family Tree"; or, "General Questions".

    Now ...

    That Said ...

    What you are 'looking' at with https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/L64D-HYL/john-hare-1603-1686 is a "Discovery Page" from "Ancestors.FamilySearch" [.org].

    Which, is NOT actually, "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch'.

    The "Discovery Page" in "Ancestors.FamilySearch" [.org] are provided and meant, to help/assist People, that are Searching the INTERNET, for their "Ancestry", to maybe, find their "Ancestors"; and, bring them to "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch'.

    But ...

    That Said ...

    When one goes to "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch', the situation is NOT any better.

    What you have identified is a matter; where, the "Research" is WRONG / INCORRECT; and, requires attention.

    Unfortunately ...

    Such is NOT an isolated case ... there are MANY ...

    Everything in "Family Tree", of 'FamilySearch', is a CONTINUAL 'Work in Progress' ...

    Where, some things are better than others ...

    You have found and highlighted one of many, that NEED attention.

    IF, you are, "Related", to ANY, of the individuals/person, concerned; THEN, by all means, feel free, to address/fix, that suspect "Research" - that would be greatly appreciate.

    Whereas, otherwise ...

    IF, you are NOT related, to ANY, of the individuals/person, concerned; THEN, feel free, to leave such; and, take no action.

    The choice is yours.

    Please understand ...

    We ALL make MISTAKES ...

    NONE of us are PERFECT ...

    We are ALL trying ...

    Everyone CAN help ... if they wish to participate ...

    Just my thoughts.

    I know, that this certainly may not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective.

    Brett
