Pickett-200 and Wright-49770 appear to represent the same person because: Pickett-200 was derived from unsourced GEDCOM file, possibly entered from the memory of Donald C Wilkey. As of 27 Jul 2021, there is no contemporary documentary evidence to verify the existence of a Codella/Cordelia Pieckett married to Thomas Franklin Bowman.
