Holden-874 and Holden-646 appear to represent the same person because: These two are the same person. One profile has info of children, and one has info of parents and siblings. The Birthday is off by one year which is within acceptable margins for a profile of this time period. By the way, there is no one alive today who has personal knowledge of someone born in the 1600's. Please don't use that as a source.
