Hare-557 and Hare-70 appear to represent the same person because: Audrey Hare-557 was linked as a wife to a Thomas Hubbard who was a version of Thomas Higbed-11 (the Marian Martyr) burned at the stake in Essex in 1555. She is a duplicate of Audrey Hare-70 who was married to Sir Thomas Hobart of Plumstead, Norfolk. However Hare-557's details have been added to fit with being the wife of Higbed-11. Please approve the merge with the birth, marriage and death details being those of Hare-70. Many thanks.

Susan - Audrey Hare was married to Sir Thomas Hobert of Plumstead, Norfolk Hobart-389 who was not burned at the stake in 1555. You have this Audrey currently married to a version of Thomas Higbed [Higbed-11] who was the Protestant Martyr, burned at the stake in Essex in 1555.

I will disconnect this Audrey Hare and repropose a merge with Hare-70 . Thank you in advance for approving the merge.

Best wishes, Jo, England Project Managed Profiles coordinator
