Drake-527 and Drake-491 appear to represent the same person because: Same vitals. Same spouse.

If Mary was born about 1650, she was not born in Mamaroneck, (unless she was an indigenous woman).

Mamaroneck History at Wikipedia.

Mamaroneck was first purchased from Indians in 1661. In the history of early colonial America, these land purchases were prior to any settlement.

Note in bio says premerge profile had birth in Fairfield CT in 1660 "without documentation". Well. There's no sources post-merge either.

I'm returning her birth year and location to the pre-merge status. (So much confusion could be save with a little geo-historical googling.)

Edwin Priest proposed the merge of Drake-3129 and Drake-527. I believe he is correct. 3129 Mary is my 7th Great.

Unknown-202399 and Drake-527 appear to represent the same person because: Looks to be same person, same husband, same birthdate. Both profiles are unsourced, however. (The husbands are the same person.) Please review for merge. Thank you.
Drake-3129 and Drake-527 appear to represent the same person because: Different DOB, but same parents and same spouse; all of which also need to be compared and possibly merged.

Thanks

After looking through my records, I do not believe that "this" Hannah Drake (Drake-491) was the one married to John Hoyt (Hoyt-154) in 1693 in Norwalk, CT. I believe that Drake-424 is the proper Hannah Drake for the spouse of John Hoyt. Query your views.
