Deming-70 and Deming-69 appear to represent the same person because: It's fairly obvious that Deming-70 was a mistake, he was connected badly. Comfort in this case is female, please merge thank you.

I believe the marriage attached is incorrect. There is nothing in the records to indicate whom Hannah married. A Comfort Deming married Nathaniel Beckley. Deming-70 and Hannah Beckley should be detached and Comfort merged with Deming-69. Objections?
