Harrison-911 and Harrison-10101 appear to represent the same person because: just added marriage source to Harrison-10101, then saw I'd added a different source to Harrison-911 for same marriage. these are definitely a match and should be merged. Thanks!

she married John Minge Jun 6, 1795, in Richmond, VA & died Feb. 27, 1812 "in the 42d year of her life" (from a transcript of Minge family bible that leads with John & Sarah's marriage & lists children & grandchildren)
