Hanks-1433 and Hanks-709 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate

Hanks-709 and Hanks-1105 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth/death dates. Same father. Same wife. Same person.
The two wives ( Sophie Reams) are born at different times ! One born in 1890 in NC; the other 1780. Did a daughter get attached as a wife ?
