Carol A. Wells-Perlaky's Notations:
Notation 1: Share DNA matches with this person's known descendants.
Notation 2: Known ancestor of Carol on maternal side of her family tree.
Notation 3: At the time I came across Elizabeth Pittman's entry on FamilySearch's one world tree, shared as a Citation here, she was mistakenly listed with an additional spouse, also with the surname of Johns, and set of children with that additional spouse. However, the person, who added this addtional spouse and set of children, didn't factor in location and dates - as the marriage to the additional spouse as well as the birth of 'their' children took place in England and also 3 to 4 decades before Elizabeth Pittman's birth in Kentucky, United States. Another reminder to look over online trees, individual or one world style, with a skeptical eye and not a 'convenient resource' to just simply copy from.
