Riley-5410 and Riley-8280 appear to represent the same person because: Hi Travis,

I noticed that you had removed John as a son of Benjamin. Evidence for Benjamin and John being sons of Benjamin are circumstantial, but pretty good, since they all ended up in the same settlement in Brown County Ohio. Please see my ancestry page which is a public tree.

Even so - I had not added the complete family for John and Rebecca earlier, because My line is through Benjamin (Jr). It is the same person.
