Nicholson-2801 and Nicholson-2798 do not represent the same person because: There are two separate David Nicholson, ones father is Shadrack Nicholson and the other ones father Alexander (Alescander) Nicholson.

Nicholson-2801 and Nicholson-2798 appear to represent the same person because: they share similar vital statistics (the exact same death date), the same parents, the same siblings, the same spouse, Mary, and the same marriage date.

I've provided sources from both FamilySearch.org and FindAGrave.com that match with the sources you've provided. I find no David Nicholson as the son of Alexander Nicholson, nor does FamilySearch.org show such a son. Could you please provide your sources that prove that David is the son of Alexander Nicholson?
