That's a total of 375 children. Three HUNDRED and seventy-five...WITH THE SAME MOTHER! At some point didn't the tree owner think...I could stop right there and say, "No, they didn't think." At some point didn't the tree owner think, "Maybe I should get rid of some of these duplicates before they get out of control." Two more things this tree owner did not consider:
1) How nine of the children listed with Norman Franklin Green as their father could be born years after his death.
2) How Sarah hid all those other children from her husband. After all, she had them while she was married and also having her husband's children.

Check back on Friday and we'll go through the census records attached to this profile. 

Hat tip to Karen for the heads up about this profile ;-)
