Please approve the merge between Ephraim Cobb-1572 and Experience Cobb-4458. They are the same person, not twins. Anderson in Great Migration names him Ephraim, b. Barnstable on 11 Sept. 1671. Thank you.

Cobb-4458 and Cobb-1572 appear to represent the same person because: initiating a new merge. These two are not twins... Anderson in Great Migration mentions no twins. Henry Cobb and his wife Sarah (Hinckley) Cobb's last child was named Ephraim, born at Barnstable on 11 Sept 1671. Anderson does not have a child named "Experience" for this couple. Please complete this merge, naming Ephraim, not Experience. Thank you.

Anderson in Great Migration Begins makes no mention of a child named "Experience." The last child of Henry Cobb and his wife Sarah (Hinckley-24) was Ephraim, born Barnstable 11 Sept 1671. I see no evidence for a child with the name of Experience?[1]
