Correct as stated by Jane, including shifting LNAB ot Frary as that has become the predominant version. The two profiles cite different profiles for her mother; I have proposed a merge of those two conflicting profiles, which ideally should precede this merge.

Frairy-1 and Frary-123 appear to represent the same person because: These appear to be the same woman, exact same DOB, same year of death. Both from Medfield. Additionally, I believe Frary is the correct spelling, though I understand the spelling of last names can be fluid in earlier days.
