Gallup-642 and Gallup-576 appear to represent the same person because: Same parents, same husband, same death data. Different birth dates, though.

The identified parents had a daughter Esther in 1750 (I added the record to the Gallup-576 profile) and they were too young to be the parents of a daughter born in 1741. If the woman who married Phineas Stanton was of an age to have been born in 1741, then she had to have had different parents -- and I've not yet found a record for an Esther Gallup born in 1741. If the woman who married Phineas Stanton was of an age to be born in 1750, then there's no discrepancy. There were other Esther Gallups, so determination of which one married Phineas Stanton could depend on sources like wills and deeds that indicate family relationships, or death records that indicate ages. However, she is identified as having a child born in 1791, which makes it more likely that she was born in 1750 than 1741.

ADDED: And I see there was another child in 1795. That makes the 1741 birth date extremely unlikely!
