Harris-3371 and Harris-3360 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate, There is no credible evidence for a previous Martha. Harris-3371 should never have been created. Please keep text from Harris-3360. Thank you.

Harris-15634 and Harris-3360 appear to represent the same person because: Harris-15634 has profiles attached for Williamson children & Harris-3360 is wife of Williamson (and has profiles for two of the children). please merge (and the children). Marriage date for Harris-3360 says 1733.

Is this the correct death date? In a will of her father's (Edward Harris) a Martha Williamson is mentioned: "I Give unto my Daughter Martha WILLIAMSON one Linen Spinning Wheel." He died in 1734 making the 1700 data unlikely.

Harris-4397 and Harris-3360 appear to represent the same person because: same parents & neither died young - don't know whether 1701 or 1705 is the correct birth year, but the different death dates (1733 and 1765) make sense if the 1733 date should have been marked "after" ... Martha Williamson was named in her father's 1733 will (which also makes me think the marriage year needs a "before"). Thanks! Liz

her father's will has Martha Williamson

also, if the 1685 marriage of Edward and Mary is correct, it's more likely this Martha is a sibling or niece of Edward, not his daughter.

I rejected a match with Harris-3360 because this Martha died a year before that Martha was born.
