I believe that I have added this to other threads related to LDS submitted records. 

I used to visit the fairly local LDS centre in order to access parish registers.  One day whilst I was there a lady was being helped to upload her family history - "But I'm not absolutely sure that I've got the right wife" - answer "It doesn't matter".   :-X

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!

I have also heard similar comments when I used to visit an LDS centre.  Now I treat LDS trees the same as those on Ancetry and similar sites.

If you have access to FindMyPast check Thomas Richard, bap 24 Sep 1777, place Chirk.
Looking at the original record, how do you read the Surname?

I agree that it looks like Prichard

Was it that Thos Pritchard that was buried at Chirk 25 Jan 1795  :-\

"Submitted records" were readily identified when I started using the IGI. Responses made it easy to recognise the type of record you were dealing with. Then came a major change to FamilySearch and it became necessary to check for type of record. Needed to be very vigilant.

Rosie99 - (a) glad you see it as Prichard - that's how I read it (b) yet to check 1795 death as part of eliminating this Thos.

thanks for looking all. my direct ancestor George Pritchard was the last born 1814 Chirk. the surname could always be Pritchard or Prichard though. not sure what is meant by Peter Prichard 1759 was he the father of a Thomas ?.
its great stuff thank you all. Brian

I think George Pritchard has been discussed a few times before:

I ( and Rosie) seem to have helped with this family many times
