A plea to those who perpetuate bad limbs on their family trees

There are many in the genealogy world who copy erroneous information to their family trees, picking the rotten limbs off other trees and passing them on and on. This blog is created in a hope of helping to end some of this. It does no one any good to pass on misinformation and blatantly fraudulent branches on your tree. Put some effort into your work and produce a tree your family can be proud of, accurate and reliable.

Grosvenor line

The line of Randall Grosvenor who married into the Mainwaring family is wrong as cited. According to several old English texts the line goes as such:
Gilbert, nephew to Hugh Kevelioc, Earl of Chester in the time of William I.
Robert le Grosvenor and Alice
Henry le Grosvenor
Raufe, or Ralph de Grosvenor
Robert le Grosvenor and Margery
Richard le Grosvenor and Margery
Robert le Grosvenor
Raufe le Grosvenor and Emma de Mobberly
Robert le Grosvenor and Joan de Pulford
Thomas Grosvenor and Joan Phesaunt, daughter William. While he was married to the
daughter of Sir Richard Venables, she was not the mother of his children.
Thomas Grosvenor and Isabel Pershale (everyone has these two Thomases turned around)
Randall Grosvenor and Margaret Mainwaring
Then on down the line.
