Aylesworth-270 and Aylesworth-135 appear to represent the same person because: I just added the Aylesworth-270, with my approximate birthday of 1720 and the Aylesworth-135 suggestion didn't happen. However when I started to add Martha Franklin, she was suggested so I used her for the mother of David.

Aylsworth-97 and Aylesworth-135 appear to represent the same person because: Same birthdate, same wife's name, same death dates and locations.
