Hi Cousins,
I am too a direct descendant of Christopher and Sophia living in Melbourne Australia.
I and many others have had trees on the Durston's for years and yes many errors in lots of trees.
So I would assume that many of you have confirmed by now by way of DNA tests to confirm the connection with each other.
I would love to be able to confirm with all of you a connection by way of Gedmatch so I will leave my number here and hopefully you will all do the same.
My number is (A492768).
With the few Durston 1st cousin Marriages and similar naming practices there will always be errors and those errors will be copied into other tress unless we all help each other correct those errors instead of sitting back complaining.
I will be the first to say there are errors in my tree and for those who have the access to records within easy reach or the funds to spend endless dollars on getting those records maybe help out those that are not so fortunate just a little to correct those errors.
Of course you all know this puzzle will never end there is always more to know and future generations will want to know this (please pass your trees on)
