Talk:Delano family

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Jonathan married Mercy Warren, granddaughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren"

This contradicts the Wikipedia article on Mercy Warren, which says that she is Mercy Otis who married a Mr. (can't remember first name without rechecking article) Warren, and that HE was the descendent of Richard Warren.Songflower 09:25, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mercy Warren was the granddaughter of Richard Warren

I am a documented descendant of both Richard Warren (Mayflower Society) and Phillipe DeLannoy and can confirm that Mercy Warren (born:20 FEB 1657 died:06 NOV 1727) was the daughter of Nathanial Warren who was the son of Richard Warren of the Mayflower. She married Jonathan Delano 28 FEB 1677 in Plymouth, Massachussetts. There is no contradiction. You're referencing Mercy Otis (who was born later) and who married another descendant of Richard Warren.

This information can be verified easily by contacting the Mayflower Society in Plymouth, Massachusetts. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.203.175.175 (talk) 19:33, 12 April 2007 (UTC).

I hope the following will clear up the confusion: you're both right.
  • The Wiki article Mercy Warren is indeed Mercy Otis, b 1728, who married James Warren, a descendent of Richard Warren.
  • The Mercy Warren that Jonathan Delano married was b c 1657, and was the daughter of Nathaniel Warren (b c 1624) who was the daughter of Richard Warren.

This page states that Robert Reford, I assume the actor since the link is for him, and a Robert Redfield are both descendants of the Delano family. Is this true? Or is this just a typo? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.138.88.211 (talk) 06:50, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
