Mercy Warren

"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)[reply]

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).[reply]

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.

Make sense? -- Sholom 19:53, 12 April 2007 (UTC) (P.S. whoever wrote the above comment -- my wife is also a descendant of Richard Warren, please contact me so we can compare notes!)[reply]

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)[reply]

The page states that Philippe De Lannoye was from 'French speaking Flanders'. It also claims he was From Leiden. But Leiden is in the Dutch speaking Netherlands and the city has never been part of Flanders.

Someone gutted the article on Phillipe. Why?

The reason someone gutted the article on phlippe is because it should be in the article on "Delano Family in Europe" at least I think? Other than that, I don't know? --Kenlukus (talk) 02:12, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delano family in Europe

Some of the things in the "Delano Family in Europe" is also in "Phlippe de Lannoy". I think we should take all the things in "Phlippe de Lannoy" that talks about life in Europe and move them to "Delano Family in Europe". The realy spelling of de Lannoy is proven to be "de Lanoy". Phlippe himself spelled it like this and so did his grandparents. If anyone would like help I am here. --Kenlukus (talk) 02:09, 29 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs reliable sources

Some of Wikipedia's best articles have significant contributions from family historians and genealogists; their expertise is critical to getting Wikipedia to expand beyond its current areas of emphasis. But articles need references and citations from reputable sources. User-created websites, such as homestead.com, are not reliable. Please cite census records, published works (excluding those from vanity presses), etc. Thanks. 72.244.204.154 (talk) 21:06, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"hireling colonizers?"

Is this an accurate or contemporary description? The colonizers who were not Pilgrims, who called themselves "Saints," the Pilgrims called "Strangers." Not all were "hirelings:" John Alden for instance was a sailor from the Mayflower. "Hireling" seems a bit derogatory here. 156.98.118.105 (talk) 20:59, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Descendants

The citation given for the descendants listed here is a book published in 1899. This source could not possibly confirm that people such as Hunter S. Thompson and Martina McBride are descendants of the Delano family and there is little evidence online that either has any connection to the family. Ccferrie (talk) 08:42, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
