Thanks for helping to sort it out, David!

The whole of this tribe is in a mess which for some reason I seem to be sorting out. They are not connected to me at all. Before the merge she was, in her other persona, married to Benjamin Cooley 10 years after she died as the date of death was then 1734, I guess two months is a big improvement!
Do we have anything to support the marriage to Timothy Brown two months after she died? :-)

Cooley-534 and Cooley-342 appear to represent the same person because: They are the same person. This was a straggling profile incorrectly attached to Benjamin Cooley as his wife for which there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever.
Mark: could you doublecheck the sources for this profile? Her marriage to Benjamin Cooley-361 doesn't make any sense given strong evidence he was married to someone else over that period. I would like to disconnect her from the Cooley-361 profile, but want to check with you first.

Cooley-342 and Cooley-1515 appear to represent the same person because: Same vitals. Thanks.
