Dillard-601 and Dillard-593 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth, same death, same parents, same spouse. Please merge.
Dillard-777 and Dillard-593 appear to represent the same person because: Birth and death dates are exact matches. Birth place matches; death place needs resolving but looks like one could be a bad autofill.

Dillard-595 and Dillard-593 appear to represent the same person because: Same father, birth date, and death date. Frances can't be Nancy's mother, as she's two years younger than her, so Leodica should be the mother chosen.
posted by Sharon Casteel
Frances, the mother, wasn't born before her daughter! Mother is likely wrong. Another profile shows the mother as Leodicia Dicy Dillard, which is more likely.
