Origin and Marriages

I already made the edit but I want this to be on record on the Talk page in case it comes up again. We have two sources for the origin and claimed early marriage of George Gardiner. The first was a self-published family genealogy, and they appear to have simply found someone named George Gardiner and concluded he must be the same person, a name's-the-same assumption all too common among non-critical genealogists. The second was a published scholarly journal article written by one of the premier professional genealogists in the US, and he concluded there was no evidence whatsoever to support the assumption this was the same George, and chronology strongly disfavored it. Based on policy, self-published material is not considered reliable, and we simply must frame our description from the perspective of this published, scholarly, expert opinion and not to the self-published speculation, as the preferred reconstruction. George's origin is unknown, there is no evidence he had a spouse before Herodias. Agricolae (talk) 23:42, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
