Rebecca Brown Whipple was born in Providence, RI.

I do not believe she was the daughter of John Brown and Sarah Walker. They resided in Rockingham, NH after leaving Charlestown, MA. All their sourced children were born in Rockingham, NH. And their childrens' birth dates don't coincide with this Rebecca. They had a Rebecca, but not Rebecca Brown Scott Whipple. Source Citation Birth year: 1640; Birth city: Providence; Birth state: RI

Brown-25361 and Browne-2478 appear to represent the same person because: Same person. LNAB spelling differs.

Brown-25361 and Scott-6659 appear to represent the same person because: Browne should be the correct last name
posted by Sara Rice
Browne-1910 and Brown-25361 appear to represent the same person because: Same person, same husbands. Differences are the spellings of Browne and Brown and more children correctly identified for the Brown listing. Both spellings appear in sources. I suggest using the Brown spelling with an aka Browne.
posted by Walter Howe
Davis-3324 and Brown-25361 appear to represent the same person because: It is my assertion that BROWN is this persons maiden name, Scott and Whipple appear to be married names, Davis has no apparent source. Both profiles are married to the same John Scott and have the same siblings. Please complete this merge. Thank you.
