This profile was previously attached to parents Leonard Hoare (abt.1630-1675) and Bridget Lisle. (Leonard was John's brother). Joanna's parentage isn't confirmed in documentation. However, the evidence excludes Joanna as a daughter of Leonard, who had two daughters (Tryphena and Bridget) recorded in vital records, and left a will, not naming Joanna as a child. G. Andrews Moriarty, in Joanna Hoar, Wife of Ezra Morse of Dedham, Mass. NEHGR 110 (1956), concluded by process of elimination that John was the most likely member of the Hoar family to be Joanna's father.[1]

I think Joanna is attached to the wrong parents. Leonard Hoar's will only mentions one child a daughter Bridget. I think she is actually the daughter of John Hoar (abt.1622-1704).
Hoare-87 and Hore-29 appear to represent the same person because: These profiles represent the same profile. I haven't seen the spelling Hore in most of the town records. Would you help us merge it into Hoare-87 since there is more source information. Thanks.
Any objections to moving Joanna?
