Gilbert-13078 and Gilbert-779 appear to represent the same person because: Same spouse.
Gilbert-14047 and Gilbert-13078 appear to represent the same person because: Jones-94328 and Jones-89301 are a good match, though there is a big discrepancy in the death years. Both had a daughter named Rhoda (again, difference in death date) who married a Mr. Sasser.
