https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Dennis-59 has immigrant John Dennis of Virginia as son of John Dennis, granducle of Thomas Ligon, and Eleanor Millett. That parentage is clearly wrong as the supposed father's own profile lists no such son. However, could he have belonged in this family? Thomas Ligon's mother was a Dennis and immigrants often had relatives who were also immigrants.

The grandmother of Col. Thomas Ligon, the immigrant, was Frances Dennis. The mother of Col. Thomas Ligon was Elizabeth Pratt.
