Bond-5508 and Haskell-279 appear to represent the same person because: Martha Bond's mother married Benjamin Haskell. This is a correct merge.
Bond-5508 and Haskell-279 do not represent the same person because: The last names at birth need to be rectified before a merge should be considered

I reviewed and added several sources to the profile of Benjamin Haskell and have seen no proof that Martha is a daughter of Benjamin and Mary Riggs. See links to Riggs, Haskell Family, "HFA", etc. on his profile.
