Lydia Child-33 Ingersole appears to have been conflated with Lydia Child-1725 Fay.

The wife of Ingersole had just one child and died prior to her husband's second marriage in 1739.

The wife of Fay had many children and died prior to her husband's second marriage in 1760.

Child-746 and Child-33 appear to represent the same person because: same parents, same marriage, clear duplicate

Child-1542 and Child-746 appear to represent the same person because: These two profiles would seem to be the same person. When I entered 1542 it didn't come up as already existed. It wasn't until I was working on it that I found 746. Sorry for the trouble.

Hello,

I have Lydia Child’s father as James Child, and her mother as Ruth Church. The sources for this are the Pennsylvania, Society of Mayflower Descendants Applications, 1911-1929; the North America, Family Histories, 1500-2000; the Family Data Collection - Individual Records for Lydia Child; and Massachusetts, Town Vital Collections, 1620-1988. Her birth date is 2 Jun 1706. I show five sources for her marriage to James Fay, dated 9 Dec 1727 in Watertown, Middlesex, MA. I believe strongly that this information be investigated, and corrected. Regards, Cheri Smith-Smigielski
