On her death certificate, has her spelt Anna, yet on her profile it’s Anne/Ann. Could be a mistake on the death or the profile. Needs to be cleared up. Also says half sister on the profile as well. All four children born to Levi and Sarah Eaton.

Levi and Sarah had four children together, were both the parents of them. There are two profiles for Lydia Anna Eaton James. Needs to be cleared up and it has half by written their names. I think there’s a mistake made here.
