I am searching for more information on a relative and have hit a dead end. His name is Thomas Tillman Parkinson LTDS-CBZ. Accounting to the info under his name, he was born in Utah in 1834. I think this information is incorrect, based on Utah history. There are sources attached to his record, but they are both for his son. Does anyone have ideas about what to do next?

    I think you pasted the wrong ID. When I did a tree search by ID, this is what I found:

    Donald George Fitch

    2 July 1927 – 2 April 1994 • LTDS-CBZ

    The correct PID appears to be LTSD-CBZ.

    Thomas has a spouse attached, KWJY-BL7 Harriet Burrell, but her profile appears to conflate at least two women named Harriet.

    I would start repairing this by detaching KWJY-BL7 from the profile of the son KWZ4-NB8 Henry Elias Parkinson. Next, from Henry's profile create an attached new, bare profile for his mother Harriet. Detach the Parkinson family source from KWJY-BL7 and attach it to his mother.

    But first, there is a Thomas Parkinson who may be the same Thomas. PID K2M4-K2L.

    Yes, you're both right, the ID was wrong. I typed it wrong.

    Moving on, @Caroline E. Hoskins, what do you think about the Thomas Parkinson who may be the same Thomas? PID K2M4-K2L.
