How-79 and Howe-153 appear to represent the same person because: Same person with two spellings. Interchange of Howe and How spellings is common in the family, but for standardization, Howe is the preferred spelling.

Howe-1098 and Howe-153 appear to represent the same person because: Elisha Howe is the son of Samuel Howe, birth date unknown. The key difference between the two Elisha Howe's is that one is listed as the son of his first wife in 1680. The second is listed as the son of his second wife in 1687. Establishing which version is correct is unlikely, but they are still the same person. I think these should be merged into one record, and the uncertainties of birth date and motherhood acknowledged.
