Hutching-24 and Hutchins-52 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicates.
posted by Gerald Jones
This profile may be a dup to Hutchins-52, but almost 100% of the bio reads as if it is someone else, with different parents and spouse. Before a merge is proposed again, the bio should be adjusted to reflect Elizabeth's parents, etc.

If this profile IS a duplicate to Hutchins-52, the merge direction needs to be proposed to go into Hutchins-52, rather than Hutchings.

The father listed in the bio, Daniel Hutchings was born 24 years after Elizabeth's birth

UPDATED: Removed father Daniel Hutchings who was born 24 years after Elizabeth's birth year. Also removed mother shown, Sarah (Cushman), who was born same year as Elizabeth.

Hutchins-853 and Hutchins-52 appear to represent the same person because: Parentage now made clearer; ready to merge.
posted by Bob Nichol
Hutchins-853 and Hutchins-52 are not ready to be merged because: There are still too many discrepancies between the mothers, Alcocke-10 and Alcock-101, to merge these families. The "Frances" represented by Alcock-101 was actually the wife of Enoch Hutchins of Kittredge, Maine, originally represented as Enoch John Hutchins in an effort to connect him to the John Hutchins of Newbury. Her name was actually unknown, and the children listed under Alcock-101 who are not mentioned in the other Hutchins family wills belong to that Enoch.

Hutchins-853 and Hutchins-52 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth year. Same parents. John and Francis Alcocke had a daughter named Elizabeth, born before 1640. Not sure the location, but the alternatives should be listed in the bio. Please merge.

Hutchins-853 and Hutchins-52 are not ready to be merged because: These cannot be merged until the family of Hutchins-52 is split into two profiles, more accurately representing the factual evidence.

Hutchins-853 and Hutchins-52 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, similar details
